As before we shall be performing a huge variety of numbers packed into 50 minutes, ranging from our trademark of new political numbers set to familiar tunes, sketches and maybe even a Scots recitation. We will also be singing some familiar oldies, and oldies that are not familiar at all but thanks to Murray Campbell’s arrangements are seeing the light of day for the first time in many years. As always we have some real musical experts providing accompaniments, and we have terrific guest artistes on the vocals.
