Survivors’ Night ready to rock
THIS year’s Mull of Kintyre Music Festival Survivors’ Night is headlined by Campbeltown super-group Slainte Davaar Allstars.
On August 21 the group, which features a selection of some of the best musicians from Campbeltown, will take to the stage on one the most popular nights of the festival.
The night will also see the welcome return of the Kintyre Schools Pipe Band.
Making their debut at the Survivors’ Night are The Shift, who recently performed with their new line-up at the Kintyre Songwriters’ Festival in May.
Headlining the concert are Slainte Davaar Allstars, who have played some fantastic sets since making their first Survivors’ Night appearance in 2012.
