Upcoming Dundee outfit Plasmas are relishing a return visit to The Hunter S Thompson after selling out the Perth Road venue in July.
When the indie five-piece’s fans filled THST, Plasmas frontman Ross McQueen considered it their best gig yet.
‘The place was bouncing’
He says: “The place was absolutely bouncing and there was such an electric energy, I couldn’t even put it into words. It was maybe the first time I’ve thought, ‘Whoa, something’s happening here’, you know?”
Ross aims to match the atmosphere next Friday, with a quality line-up completed by Sunstinger and Red Vanilla, saying, “We’re hoping for more of the same this time round; we’ve added a bit more to the set and the supports are amazing. It’s going to be a belter of a night.”
Debut EP
It follows last month’s release on streaming services of debut EP, A Summer’s Day Can Break Your Heart, named after a line from one of its five bittersweet dream-pop tracks.
With no plans for an expensive physical release, Ross’s ambition is to sell cassettes at gigs.
He explains: “I got obsessed with the eighties last year and bought an original Walkman – would be so cool to listen to the EP on that!”
- Plasmas play The Hunter S Thompson, Dundee, November 18.
