About the event

THIS RETRO FUTURE 

Are a newly founded West of Scotland rock band formed at the end of 2025.

Made up of Sean McBain on rhythm guitar and vocals, Robbie Dunlop on lead guitar, Ruben Hernando on bass, and Ania Pieczara on drums, the band brings together a wealth of individual experience from years spent writing, recording, performing, and living inside music.

The sound is straight-up rock: heavy guitars, big solos driven bass, powerful drums, hooky choruses, and songs built to be played loud in real rooms, in front of real people.

Though new on the scene as a band, THIS RETRO FUTURE are not starting from scratch. The musicianship is sharp, the songs are ready, and the intent is simple: play anywhere, play everywhere, and build something from the ground up.

The band have a first single release coming soon, and are hard at work moving through the early band milestones: rehearsing, recording, releasing and gigging and there is no better place to gig than the DREAD.
