Step Inside: King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut
Everything you need to know about one of Glasgow’s most celebrated music venues
Located in the heart of Glasgow in what used to be the Saints and Sinners pub, King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut held its first gig in February 1990. The venue – which borrows its name from an Egyptian-themed club in New York’s East Village – was founded by Glaswegian promotion outfit DF Concerts with a single goal: to serve as a launchpad for up-and-coming talent. That goal has been achieved many times over, with historic King Tut’s line-ups boasting the names of some of today’s most global superstars. Notable highlights include Lewis Capaldi, Radiohead, Coldplay, and Biffy Clyro, and in 1999 The Manic Street Preachers took a brief break during their set at T in the Park to thank King Tut’s for being “the first venue to treat us properly and give us hot food on tour”…
