Vocoustics Presents:
Roddy Hart
Cafe Drummonds, Aberdeen
Tuesday 29th March
3 from 8pm
In a relatively short time, Roddy Hart has established himself as an important and influential emerging talent on the Scottish musical scene. At only 24, he has his eyes fixed firmly on re-igniting the merits of classic songwriting.
Following in the wake of great artists like Dylan, Springsteen, Browne, Young and Finn, his guitar, piano and harmonica-driven lyrical reflections impact on all who hear them and have subsequently earned him much respect from fans and critics alike.
He continues to develop as an artist, evident not only in his rapidly expanding following but also in his recent string of high profile gigs with artists such as Kris Kristofferson, John Prine, The Trash Can Sinatras, The Thorns, The Go Betweens, and Kelly Joe Phelps.
"writes songs that ache with emotion - beautiful, acoustic led, melody-rich pieces... sung in a voice filled with power and delicate fragility. He is a seeking, youthful talent, quite clearly burning with creativity" Daily Record
"[like] a young Willie Nelson or Bruce Springsteen. Great songs... that will restore your faith in songwriting" Sunday Mail
"One of Scotland's most promising songwriters" The Daily Express
Support from My Beautiful Ex-Girlfriend, Ellie Mulhern & Amber Wilson

One of the best front men in Scotland without a doubt!
Too true' date=' Ewan is stunning as a performer and as a voice. Saw them in The Loft (Kinloss) 2 weekends ago and they were on fire, the new songs lift the roof. They definatley deserve a break.

Supporting Ewan MacFarlane from The Grim Northern Social on 16th March in Drummonds. Shetland Folk Festival at end of april. Glasgow in May - check out www.elliemusic.com for up-to-date info
Did you see us in Mooneys? we're back there for a gig in August.
-
its a JD SET event!!
sponsored by them and channel4 (i think)
-
Dont suppose anybody has been to Lemon Tree tonight? I tried to get tickets for K T Tunstall lst week but they sold out....just wondered if it was any good?
Yeah i saw her in HMV at 5 and at the tree at night. I liked her better solo in HMV than at the lemontree with full band. It was the busiest Ive ever seen the tree!! CherryTree song is so good when she does it solo! well worth seeing live!
by the way Trooker Im a Shetlander too.
-
well i hope you all like Jack Daniels....cause that is the ONLY alcoholic drink available on the night!!!!
I actually dont like JD that much - but if its free I'll love it!!!!!!
-
that was hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I got the call from TimesOnline yest - Ive got TWO tickets!!!!!!!
-
Grim Northern Social were fantastic on saturday night at The Loft!
First time i've heard them' date=' amazing band. Can't wait to play Keith Chaos on the same bill as them!
[/quote']
I made it up to the gig - drove up in the snow! 2hrs there 2hrs back but worth it.
Yes fantastic - it was the most energetic/schizophrenic performance ive seen by Ewan. He had a wee sore throat, but it didnt show - the whiskey he was necking seemed to help!
and a great venue really liked it!
Photos from the gig will be up on www.vocoustics.com soon...
-
Get well soon.
-
I'm impressed at you admitting to premature ejaculation in front of the whole Forum' date=' Graeme. Keep it up!!! (a wee bit longer ).[/quote']
We were having a serious musical discussion and Cynic had to go and lower the tone by slipping in his 2 inches!.........of forum space that is!
