It was a night that many would usually have stayed home.

But hundreds of Glasgow's most musical heads found themselves making their way to SWG3 on the eve of Christmas Eve, and who was it all for? Joesef.

Taking the UK by storm, Joesef has collected both accolades and nominations in the short time the 24 year old has been making music from his bedroom - but there is nothing like a hometown gig.

Just shy of completely selling out a room that was already upgraded due to high demand, Joesef was finally the star of a show we have all been waiting for.

With his trademark baby pink lighting up the stage to the sounds of Sophie Elis-Bexter's 'Murder on the Dancefloor' as his entrance tune, Joesef began his set with biggest tune, 'Loverboy'.

For me, one of the most fascinating parts of the show was to see Joesef's entirely natural Glasgow accent in-between his angelic jazz sounds as he asked the audience, 'how's it gaun, Glasgow?'

Many would criticise the choice to open with his biggest track, complete with a burst of a pink confetti canon, and it is true that there was a slight dip in the crowd's energy as Joesef ploughed on with new tracks, but the show was so aesthetically and audibly pleasing to pay attention to that would be unfair.

There is something so heartfelt about Joesef that one almost feels like a proud mother as they watch him perform (and those hips are certainly another thing worth a mention).

Here is a man with a well-tuned craft and an effortless ease with a microphone. He exudes a natural grace on stage, but it is in those moments where he tells us in that accent that a certain song is about a certain someone that we call him ours. CARLA JENKINS
