Host of acts lined up as Scotland on Tour stops off in East Neuk

Scotland on Tour, the initiative which has been put in place to support the recovery of the live music industry, will come to Crail in Fife when rock band Liz Jones & Broken Windows play Crail Community Hall on September 3.

Fronted by vocalist Liz Jones, the band will showcase their jazz roots on the East Neuk stage.

The six-piece band includes drums and bass, with veteran Blues ’N’ Trouble’s John Bruce on guitar, along with rising keys maestro Jamie Hamilton and percussionist Suzy Cargill.

Liz Jones said: “We’re really looking forward to playing at Crail Community Hall.

“It’s a pleasure to bring our original music to Crail for the first time, so thank you for the invite.

“Getting Broken Windows back out on the road started with fantastic shows in Aberdeen and Bathgate this summer, so we’re fired up and ready for you.”

Scotland on Tour will take place over a year between April 2022 and 2023.

The remaining concerts taking place at Crail Community Hall are Elaine Lennon: The Homebird Sessions on October 1; Elsa Jean McTaggart – Eva Cassidy: The Story on October 22; Dean Owens and the Sinners on November 12; Tommy Smith on November 13; Opera Alba on November 26; and Karen Marshalsay on February 18 2023.

Dennis Gowans, events manager at Crail Community Hall, said: “We have been very fortunate to be selected as a venue for Scotland on Tour and are very proud to assist artists to play in front of live audiences again.

“This is a great opportunity for Crail to experience some fantastic talent that wouldn’t normally find their way to the East Neuk of Fife.

“We hope that people in the East Neuk as well as the surrounding communities will be enticed to join us for these special performances.”

Tickets for any of the events can be purchased on the Scotland on Tour website.
