Wednesday

Wednesday hit SWG3 Glasgow on 24 August 2026. From Asheville, North Carolina, the band built around singer and writer Karly Hartzman turns plainspoken storytelling into thick, noisy landscapes. Alongside Hartzman, MJ Lenderman, Xandy Chelmis, Alan Miller and Ethan Baechtold fold shoegaze shimmer, 90s alt-rock bite and a skewed strain of Southern country into one steady pull. The songs trace small-town scenes, dented memories and late-night drifts; guitars grind and ring, while Chelmis’ pedal steel threads a restless, almost haunted line through the mix.

Live, Wednesday lean into contrasts: feedback and melody, weight and air, tension and release. Hartzman’s voice keeps the frame tight, words landing with a clear edge as the band lets the arrangements swell and buckle. Expect a set that moves from slow-burn to headlong rush without losing the detail in the writing — a show built on noise, twang and the grain of the everyday, played loud and close.
