The MU has partnered with Pitch, Scotland’s international conference of hip hop and underground culture, taking place 27-29 August.

A limited number of passes remain available for this year’s event, which will see artists and delegates from overseas join those from across Scotland and the three other UK nations for the weekend, which takes place across at Drygate Brewery and McChuills Music Bar.

Returning for its fourth edition, Pitch will further develop its unique platform for supporting artists and industry professionals at all stages of their careers through networking, expert panel discussions, mentoring sessions and inspirational live performances. The conference will also include three evening music showcases and work from artists from the worlds of spoken word and dance.
