Indie Music
Carnivores are a 3 piece punk rock band from Paisley who are reminiscent of fellow Scots Idlewild. They are self managed and have released everything to date - 3 singles and a 6 track mini album - via their own label Death Or Glory Music.
I watched them play live while supporting The LaFontaines but missed them when they came back to Inverness to play at Hootenany's. They were loud, energetic, and frontman, Kenny (I think) had a great presence-and even ended up playing in the crowd at the end of their half hour.
Carnivores have played at T in the Park, sold out King Tut's in Glasgow and have played live sessions for BBC Radio 1. They have also supported the likes of Twin Atlantic, The Xcerts and Frank Turner. Carnivores have just announced that they will be having a short Scottish tour in March/April so check them out if they're up your way!

This 3 piece band from Inverness are quite local to me and I've seen them about 5 times now when I've been at gigs in Inverness. They are usually the support act and consistently put out a good performance and take a bit of banter from their friends...
