Muscles of Joy

A real one off experience is being offered by the fabulous Muscles of Joy.

Marching Machine
Marchine Machine

Muscles of Joy are kindly donating two tickets to a forthcoming gig and a workshop with band members to make a Marching Machine. The band use one that Anne-Marie made as one of their instruments and it’s a gorgeous object and makes an amazing sound! For your chance to bid on this unique experience come along to the Auction of Pleasures on Friday 17 September at St Andrew’s in the Square.

Muscles of Joy formed in Glasgow around early 2008, with eight women. An important focus from the beginning was in employing all eight voices in creating music. Since their formation Muscles of Joy have performed at venues in Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Stirling, and this summer they record their first Ep which will be released by Watts of Goodwill at Monorail, Glasgow and also a track to be included in the forthcoming Ep of international protest songs on the Optimo Music label

Muscles of Joy are: Anne-Marie Copestake, Katy Dove, Leigh Ferguson, Sophie Macpherson, Victoria Morton, Jenny O’Boyle, Ariki Porteous, and Charlotte Prodger.
