Music:Member Since: 10/27/2005Band Website: freecandysessions.co.uk Band Members: :: about the free candy collective the free candy collective began in July 2003 in the liquid lounge, glasgow as a monthly gig by four glasgow musicians looking for somewhere to play their own music, free.Tired of having to go through the usual "pay to play" nonsense that Glasgow is famous for the four decided to run their own night for themselves and their friends.By October 2003 the collective was playing fortnightly on saturdays. After christmas the collective went weekly due to the volume of artists wanting to perform.After a successful run until July 2004, the free candy collective had a well earned rest for the summer.Proceedings resumed from 16th Oct 2004 until 18th Dec 2004.We resumed the Free Candy Sessions on the 17th Feb 2005 at The Liquid Ship,Great Western Road.
