Headed up by principal songwriter and vocalist Robert Fisher, Willard Grant Conspiracy is an international musical collective so large it makes Lambchop look like the White Stripes. Although the bands spiritual home is in Boston it has a loose membership that numbers close on thirty musicians, variously operating right across the US and Europe. The band recently released their sixth album, Let it Roll, to even more positive reception than usual. Broadening their sonic palette further still it moves effortlessly between sedate acoustic musings, painfully raw rock and dust-blown psychedelic blues. Fisher has a voice that has all the gravity of a Cash, a Cohen or a Cale Uncut the sound is epic, florid, grandiose; the mood dark; the achievement great Time Out reminiscent of The Band in all their gothic pomp Mojo www.willardgrantconspiracy.com

Chris Stout Quartet+Lori Watson 3 Saturday 11th November Doors 8pm Support 8.30pm Tickets 10 (6.75 concessions & Regulars) Shetlander Chris Stout is widely regarded as the leading fiddle player of his generation both in Scotland and beyond.

The quartet also features Catriona McKay on harp and piano, Neil Harland on double bass, and Malcolm Stitt on guitar. There are some who can play like nobodys business and set the heather on fire in the process, and there are those who are possessed to the extent that they achieve standards that are out there beyond the reach of almost anyone else. Stout sets a new benchmark. Maverick magazine From the far north to the far south, as Borders fiddler and singer Lori Watson opens tonights show with her acclaimed trio. Her vivacious, cleanly articulated fiddling was complemented by silvery, beautifully poised vocals and a wealth of inventive accompanying colours and rhythms.

Teenage runaway and addict, philosophy student, restaurateur and now a hugely acclaimed singer songwriter, Louisiana native Mary Gauthier (pronounced Go-Shay) has lived a colourful life that is reflected in her gritty, honest and compassionate songs. Her most recent albums Drag Queens And Limousines, Filth And Fire and her brilliant latest Mercy Now have received unprecedented praise and earned favourable comparisons with Steve Earle, John Prine and Lucinda Williams. Tough as nails in singing about her walks on the wild side as a rebellious youth and wilful adult,... She knows who she is and she doesnt care if you do, too. No Depression Live, she is mesmerising. Her songs are a strange mix of half-spoken, half-sung talking blues: clever, often laugh-out-loud tales of addicts, victims and losers, of cheap motels and failed love affairs.

Scotlands greatest blues singer (and arguably our best in any style) is now in his 60s but like good whisky and all great bluesmen, he continues to improve with age. His authentic, contemporary take on the blues finds him singing material from Gil Scott-Heron, Robert Burns and John Hiatt alongside his own gritty compositions exploring modern themes such as homelessness and pollution and his signature tune, Stonemasons Blues. Reminiscent of John Lee Hooker and Frankie Miller, Tams gravel-and-broken glass voice is something that cannot be ignored. When he growls, I was born to sing the blues, you believe him.
