    About This Event

    At Union Hall, Hotel Art Thief headlines a mixed bill that pairs concise, Glasgow-rooted songwriting and rock/pop sets by Belle, Firestone, Hotel, Jaboukie, and Tessa with DIY performance and visual work by Hotel Art Thief and Thief, and character-led comedy from Sureni and Weerasekera. The evening favors close-room listening and attentive presence: the musicians foreground songcraft and direct delivery, while the performance artists emphasize process and documentation over spectacle.
