Spanish indie rock band Hinds returned to Glasgow for a sold-out show at Saint Luke’s, thanks in part to their dedicated fans spreading the word across social media.

Supporting them was Stockholm-based band Clutter, fresh from releasing their debut singles. Their grunge-inspired sound set the perfect tone for an incredible night.

What better way to hype up the crowd than by opening with “Hi, How Are You?” from their latest album VIVA HINDS.

Right from the start, the chemistry between Carlotta Cosials and Ana García Perrote—both on vocals and guitar—was undeniable. But it was during “Boom Boom Back”, with its unmistakable Strokes influence, that I truly felt transported from listening at home to experiencing the raw energy of their live performance. It was electrifying—giving me goosebumps from the sheer power they brought to the stage.

The set continued with more tracks from VIVA HINDS, including “Coffee” and “Stranger”, while the band took moments to chat with fans and express their gratitude for such a warm welcome back.

Of course, no Hinds show would be complete without hits from previous albums. The bittersweet “Good Bad Times” and the high-energy “Burn” had the crowd singing along, followed by Spanish tracks like “Spanish Bomb” and “En Forma” to close out the night.

Having always missed their previous shows in Glasgow, I was thrilled to finally see Hinds live—and they did not disappoint. Their performance made my day infinitely better.
