Live Music Event - HANK TREE

Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, Glasgow, G1 5HD
Thursday 10th September 2026
This event is part of Sharmanka's programme of live performances by local and international musicians, artists and performers.

It’s a welcome return to Sharmanka, as Hank Tree join us for September’s music event amidst Eduard Bersudsky’s marvellous mechanical sculptures.

Hank Tree is a Glasgow based project led by guitarist and songwriter Fergus MacDonald, which seeks to balance fragility and harshness through atmospheric ballads, distortion-heavy instrumentals and pieces featuring fast picked classical guitar and field recordings.

Hank Tree has supported artists including King Creosote, Steve Gunn and Gwenifer Raymond and received airplay on BBC 6Music and BBC Radio Scotland, released its first EP via the Chilean label Uva Robot and the debut album, The Big North, on Olive Grove Records. Sophomore album, Care 1, finds MacDonald looking back over the last decade of experiences working in the care sector supporting people with profound learning difficulties and mental health problems and explores questions about what it means to rely on other people.
