Strikingly individual, twin brothers Craig and Charlie Reid have over the years enjoyed huge successes across the globe and in April last year released their 10th album on the Cooking Vinyl label.
They have carved a niche for themselves where pop, folk, new wave and punk collide as the emotional honesty, political fire, wit and sing-along raucousness of their songs and their extensive touring has enlightened and entertained fans new and old.
In the process they have enjoyed Gold and Platinum singles and albums in UK, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Following on from the theatre success of the musical drama featuring songs by The Proclaimers, 'Sunshine On Leith' the movie version was a hugely popular release in 2013, spending a month in the Top Ten generating over £4.8 million at the UK box office, the fifth highest grossing independent release of the year.
Expect to hear the classics Sunshine on Leith, (I'm Gonna Be) 500 Miles, Letter From America, I'm on My Way, Life With You, Lets Get Married and more.
'My favourite band of all time. They write the most spectacular songs, big hearted, uncynical passionate songs.' David Tennant.
Supported by rambling folk singer Will Varley, who has famously walked over 500 miles along England's south coast with a guitar on his back. He saw an incredible year last year with the release of his critically acclaimed third album 'Postcards From Ursa Minor' on 30th October via Xtra Mile Recordings. His previous two albums also received rave reviews from Q magazine & fRoots and he has been described by Frank Turner, as 'One of the best singer-songwriters in the UK.'
Artists / Speakers: Craig and Charlie Reid, The Proclaimers.
