We are so excited to be playing Radio 2 in the Park, in Stirling on Sunday 13th September. It’s an amazing city with a beautiful castle and the most wonderful views right across the middle of Scotland. We can’t wait to see you there.

We’re proud to celebrate @recordstoredayuk with the release of something deeply special to us, The Great Western Road Trip: A Live Album.

Recorded on the opening night of The Great Western Road Trip at Edinburgh’s Usher Hall in March last year, this live album captures the very first performance of nine brand new songs, played alongside some of your favourites.

What we didn’t know then was that it would also be our final Scottish show with our dear friend and brother, Jim.

We hope the excitement we felt creating the show comes through, and that you enjoy this unique recording of a very special Edinburgh night.

Available exclusively for Record Store Day 2026 on blue smoke triple vinyl and CD. The vinyl is limited to 1000 hand-numbered copies. Find your local participating store here.
