Oxjam Music Festival Takes Over Edinburgh

Oxjam is taking over five venues in Edinburgh on Friday 23rd of October for an evening of the best live music around in aid of Oxfam GB.

One wristband gets you access to ALL of the venues below, all night long.

Cabaret Voltaire Frightened Rabbit (Scott solo, with special friends), Three Blind Wolves, Boycotts, Dead Boy Robotics

The Bowery Meursault, Jesus H. Foxx, Y’all is Fantasy Island, The Occasional Flickers

Tickets for Oxjam cost £7 and are available from Avalanche Records on Cockburn Street, Edinburgh or visit www.wegottickets.com

In addition there will be a couple of exciting pairings going on the night, with the highlight being a secret gig in the Oxfam store on The Royal Mile. Keep an eye on the oxjamedinburgh.blog for more details.

This year all proceeds from Oxjam will go directly to those already affected by climate change. Whilst for many climate change is a debatable subject the effects are being felt in the world's poorest communities, this is your chance to make a difference. 80 pence out of every pound donated will go directly into aid.
