The Scottish songsmith has released four albums to date, with his latest offering Use It Or Lose It due for release in October this year. The album was recorded in a little barn studio in the Yorkshire Dales and features collaborations with Seth Lakeman, David Ford, Alex Hart, Ellie Gowers, The Magpies and Graham Coe (Sam Kelly & The Lost Boys). His debut record, Boy Cries Wolf, garnered much praise from Janice Long and was played on Radio 2 courtesy of Steve Lamacq. The left-hander is also no stranger to the festival circuit, having played Kendal Calling, Green Man, Deershed and Beardy Folk Festivals to name but a few.

When not performing and recording his own music, the multi-instrumentalist busies himself playing bass for Leeds-based Fleetwood Mac tribute, Weetwood Mac (ex-Ellen & The Escapades) and fronts his own reworking of Paul Simon’s classic album, Graceland, with a seven-piece band who have played many a theatre and festival, including Shrewsbury, Towersey, Costa Del Folk, Moonbeams, and Underneath The Stars.

Tonight, expect to hear a mix of Gary’s back catalogue and songs from his new album, interspersed with some of Paul Simon’s best-loved hits.
