Great Eastern Festival – Edinburgh – 27 Nov 2021
A long day around 3 venues, but worth it all to catch some great new bands and end up with the highlight of the wonderful BC Camplight at the lovely Kings Hall. Started around 3pm with a snippet of Bikini … Continue reading

Lewsberg – Sneaky Pete’s, Edinburgh – 15 Nov 2021
Just over 2 years since we first saw the fascinating Lewsberg from Rotterdam right here at Sneaky Pete’s. Their latest album is even more laid back and mellow and the set completely reflected that. Support band Order Of The Toad … Continue reading

The Nightingales – The Caves, Edinburgh – 11 Nov 2021
I saw The Nightingales as support a few years ago and was impressed so the years of waiting and rescheduling were well worth it to experience a typically ferocious performance. A band with a long and storied history led by … Continue reading

Do Nothing – Mash House, Edinburgh – 5 Nov 2021
I first saw Do Nothing getting on for 3 years ago supporting another great Nottingham band Kagoule. That was my favourite gig of 2019, both bands superb. So after a long Covid induced hiatus and a re-arranged date a few … Continue reading

Fontaines DC – O2 Academy, Edinburgh – 22 Oct 2021

John – Sneaky Pete’s, Edinburgh – 11 Oct 2021
John are John Newton (drums and vocals) and Johnny Healey (guitar), makes sense then! And their brutal, punky, thrashy, rifftastic noise blew our ears out, and we all loved it! Attended by George, Andy, Douglas

Laura Marling – Queens Hall, Edinburgh – 8 Oct 2021
Two nights in a row (long story) but great to see Laura in Edinburgh again (after last night in Glasgow) and especially with Davie. We’ve seen her 4 times together, some magical evenings I’ll always treasure. In fact this was … Continue reading

Laura Marling – SWG3, Glasgow – 7 Oct 2021
I never miss Laura when she comes to Scotland. And it was great to bring Chris along since he has just got into her music. Lucky man … I think he was just as entranced as I was. I prefer … Continue reading
