Blackbeards Tea Party
McChuills · Glasgow

UK music promotion, touring & management. Pop spectacles, ska anthems, electronic nights, classical reimagined. One platform. Every gig.
The ska legends bring "One Step Beyond" and four decades of nutty boy anthems to Helix Park — the headline outdoor moment of our 2026 calendar.
"The promoters Scotland needed —
grassroots energy,
arena ambition."
We promote at the UK's most iconic rooms — from sweat-soaked basements to outdoor festival sites. A handful of the venues we've called home:
XFP began life in 2019 as a grassroots concert promotions company in Scotland — set up to run shows for a collective of musicians disenchanted with the legacy music industry. Powered by Ross Coutts and Stewart Douglas, we've grown into a fully national concert promoter staging hundreds of events per year across the UK and Northern Ireland.
In 2024 we launched the Scottish Live Music Awards with Go Radio, garnering over 84,000 votes across 14 categories — celebrating the best live talent in Scotland.
