Hogmanay at The Magnum, Edinburgh

A reminder that we’re returning to play at The Magnum in Edinburgh this New Year’s Eve.

As in the last couple of years, this gig will be FREE ENTRY and we’ll play you right through from the old year into the new. Our first set will begin about 11.15pm on Hogmanay and we’ll finish off our last set at about 1.30am.

The Magnum is on the corner of Albany Street and Dublin Street, right in the heart of the New Town but outwith the controlled area, so although it’s but a short hop from Princess Street you can come and go without the need for wristbands.

Stirling Folk Club and Drumpellier GC

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe may be finished for another year but there is plenty happening over the next while.

We’re returning to Stirling Folk Club on Monday 24th September, and really looking forward to going back to play at Bridgehaugh.

We then have a day in the West on Saturday 6th October, with a talk and performance in the afternoon at the ASLS Schools’ Conference at the University of Glasgow followed by a gig in the evening at Drumpellier Golf Club.

Looking further ahead we’ll be back at The Magnum in Edinburgh on 31st December for a special Hogmanay gig.

For full details of all upcoming shows remember to check out the CONCERTS page.

2018 Begins…

After a relatively quiet lead up to the end to 2017, we saw the year out with a bang at The Magnum in Edinburgh. It was great to be back there, welcoming in 2018 with such a warm, enthusiastic crowd. Thanks to all who made it along, and to Chris and all the staff who are so accommodating to us.

The new year is off to a busy start, with our return to the Dalgety Bay Folk Club last Friday set to be followed by performances at Edinburgh Uni, Dalry Primary School, Mar Lodge and the Cromlix Hotel over the next two or three weeks. We are also planning a new album and hope to begin recording around March.

Meanwhile, here’s a little slice of last year’s Fringe show and a song which will feature on the next album – Lord Randal.
