Can you hear the music echoing from the past? It’s the rhythm of The Fratellis, a Scottish rock band deeply connected to Budhill. Right here in this Glasgow neighborhood, north of the River Clyde, nestled between Springboig, Greenfield, and Shettleston, lies Budhill. This area isn’t just houses and streets. It’s a place where musical dreams were born. The Fratellis honed their skills in a studio above a Chinese restaurant in Budhill. Their connection to this area is so strong, they even named a collection of their songs “The Budhill Singles Club”. The band’s video for “Creepin’ Up the Backstairs” features scenes filmed in Budhill Square, a testament to their roots. Budhill isn’t just about music though. Budhill Square is a hub of activity, home to Shettleston railway station. It’s a place where you can grab groceries at the large Tesco and Aldi supermarkets. But it’s also a place for sports and recreation. Budhill Park provides green space for the community, with a play area for children and a football pitch. This pitch is the home ground of Glasgow Girls F.C., a women’s amateur team. So, next time you hear a Fratellis song, remember Budhill. It’s more than just a neighborhood. It’s a place where music, community, and everyday life intertwine.
