Drumming up support (boom-boom) for the #edfringe shows last week, in the face of a less-than-ideal-for-kilts wind!
We're back to begin our final six shows from TODAY (Mon 21st) at 4.10pm, Greenside at Riddle's Court, just off the Royal Mile.

Song-Circler @douglaskay_com in action with his folk duo #TheSorries in a couple of weeks, warming you up before the Scotland v England match with some traditional songs. Expect tales of glorious defeats and gallant failure - and that's before we even get to the football!

Two weeks tomorrow (Fri 18th June) we perform together in the same room for the 1st time in over a year - part of the build up to Eng v Scotland in the #Euro2021 (or is it still #Euro2020 ?!) Championships.
We'll be live over Zoom pre kick-off, tix from:

I'm back @bar_brig on Leith Walk for my first solo gig of the year on Sunday 19th January. It's an afternoon set - 4.15pm - so I'm sure there'll be a lovely, chilled atmosphere.
For those who haven't seen me play before, I'll probably be looking a bit like this...
