Many people are familiar with the concept of the suspended coffee, where you pay in advance for a coffee for someone who couldn’t afford it. Now a similar idea is being launched in Glasgow on Easter Sunday (16th April) but this time in the music world. The legendary King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut venue is offering people the chance to to go to a special gig called ‘Soul Food’: you’ll pay for your own ticket but also buy a ‘soul’ ticket - that’s one for someone who wouldn’t normally get the chance to hear live music.

Soul Food’s creator and Glasgow singer/songwriter, Jill Brown, will headline the event. She said: ”I have a passion for helping those on the outskirts of society and poverty needn’t be only material. We forget that people need inspiration and hope as well as food and shelter. I hope that Soul Food will give people a positive experience and memory on which to draw.
