Glasgow post-emo outfit The Rarely Social celebrate the release of their debut EP, “It Can All Change in an Instant”. They will be joined by:

Oh, Rain – Fun-loving punk/emo from Glasgow. “Being sad never sounded so good.”

rateatrat – Grungey emotional hardcore trio from Glasgow. “Sewer Service.”

A night of celebration and emotional release, with good friends and great tunes.

The Rarely Social are a 3-piece post-emo band from Glasgow, Scotland. They began writing music in 2021 as a creative escape during the latter stages of lockdown, subsequently making their live debut in 2022. They’ve known each other for years, growing from their late adolescence into adulthood together, and their music is a reflection of their lived experiences, recollections and observations.

Musically, they draw influence from various areas of the emo genre: from melodic influences, evocative of emo revival bands such as Tiny Moving Parts, Kayak Jones and Free Throw, to post-hardcore rhythmic sensibilities, reminiscent of bands like La Dispute, Sunny Day Real Estate and early Biffy Clyro, mixed together with a decidedly pop-punk flair and energy, akin to that of The Wonder Years and Hot Mulligan.

After establishing themselves locally in 2022, 2023 saw the band hit new heights and milestones, sharing stages with multiple international touring artists. From Australia’s Eat Your Heart Out, to Telltale from the USA, and even supporting Chinese Football on the sold-out Glasgow date of their first tour outside of China. In 2024, The Rarely Social have kept the ball rolling by supporting Cold Years at the iconic Cathouse Rock Club, and working with American record producer Billy Mannino. The band will continue to develop their recorded music catalogue, while collaborating with both local and international bands live on stage.
