The 1975 take Glasgow by storm as Matty Healy declares 'Scotland should be independent'
Manchester pop-rock band The 1975 returned to Glasgow at the OVO Hydro on Thursday night for the first time since 2019 for their sold-out tour with thousands of screaming fans.
Taking on the role of the tortured musician, Matty quickly lights a cigarette and takes swigs from a bottle of red wine before taking his seat at the piano to belt out hits from their new album Being Funny in a Foreign Language. The frontman continued, swaying around with wine and cigarettes in hand making note of how the set 'wasn't real'. He continued with the haunting rendition of About You.
Chocolate and It’s Not Living came after he reminisced with fans about one of their earliest performances which was in King Tut’s in 2006 when he “wore shorts”. Following this, the frontman instructed the crowd to take steps back and away from attendees before he began singing The Sound. The hit single from their 2016 album 'I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It' could have taken the roof of the Hydro as not one fan in the building was stood still, but jumping around to the upbeat tempo.
