Primus
About This Event
The Glasgow Barrowland Ballroom will host Primus on Tuesday 18 August 2026, marking the band’s first UK appearance in nearly a decade. The American trio, renowned for their idiosyncratic fusion of funk, metal, and progressive rock, bring a repertoire defined by intricate, lurching basslines and ever-shifting time signatures. Their live performances are distinguished by abrupt dynamic shifts, off-kilter rhythms, and an atmosphere that can veer from carnivalesque to menacing within a single song. The venue’s celebrated sprung dancefloor and echo-heavy acoustics offer a fitting backdrop for music that feels both chaotic and meticulously controlled. Tickets are available via the venue’s website.
