Low-fi favourites Gomez drop past HMV Aberdeen for Live and Local this week. This series of free intimate show is a great way to get up close and personal with your favourite band. Expect this show with Gomez to be a busy one.
It’s an opportunity for up-and-coming artists to perform to a small but appreciative local crowd and for music lovers to discover new, exciting talent. These shows are a unique and memorable experience for customers. Many city artists have gained invaluable exposure from HMV Aberdeen Live and Local.
Supporting musicians helps the city to build a vibrant and diverse music scene. It also creates a platform for emerging artists to showcase their talent and develop their skills. And don’t forget that it also gives us all a sense of pride in the city’s music scene, which we all helped build.

Kevin Mitchell and Chris Sansbury founded POST. This was from a desire to cut through the noise to share the great things that happen in Aberdeen. They focus on community, culture and also the interesting people of the city. The local artists, businesses and charities; photographers, musicians and entertainers. These are the people that make a positive impact on our city every day. So they use video, audio, writing and social media to amplify the voices in our community. And to ultimately give a platform to Aberdeen folk to engage and tell their own stories.
Recent work includes coverage of Spectra 2023, interviews with We Are Here Scotland founder Ica Headlam; Paralympic gold medalist, Neil Fachie; Aberdeen rapper Chef and his push for success; an article about the pedestrianisation of Union Street; coverage of Nuart Aberdeen and TEDx Aberdeen, as well as coverage of the campaign to Save the Belmont.
We are independent and entirely self funded. We just about cover our costs, but if you would like to help support our work, you could buy us a coffee.
