The Snuts - Joe McGillveray (2024‪)‬ FaceCulture: Giving You The People Behind The Music

    • Music Interviews

Joe McGillveray is the guitarist for Scottish indie rock band The Snuts. After generating a grassroots following with the success of a few self-released singles, the band signed with Parlophone and released their debut album 'W.L.' (2021) to great acclaim and claimed the top spot in both the British and Scottish album charts. The follow up album 'Burn the Empire' did almost as well, peaking at the third spot, but it became clear that the band wasn't on the same page with their label. So for their latest album 'Millennials' the band went back to their independent roots. We spoke with Joe about the new album, TRNSMT festival, the early days of the band, having their debut album reach the number one spot, taking creative control back and a lot more!
