On Tuesday 30th – St. Andrew’s Night – who knows what special tartan-themed treats Tim Booth will have in store when James play the Hydro in Glasgow, but you can possibly guess how Dougie Maclean‘s show at Adelaide Place will go.

In Glasgow on Wednesday, Vistas play their first of two shows at the Barrowlands in what is a remarkable rise of the trio over the past couple of years.
Blue Rose Code are also out and about, with a show at Stirling’s Tolbooth.
