page 8 the mns collection …. music news scotland Scotland on Tour returns to Glasgow’s West End with An Evening of Songs Scotland on Tour, the exciting initiative to support the recovery of our live music industry, will return to Glasgow’s West End this autumn when An Evening of Songs and Stories with James Grant comes to Cottiers Theatre on Sunday 25 September. Regarded as one of the country’s finest singer-songwriters, James first shot to fame with the band Love and Money, writing four classic albums for the band. Recording all four in New York, James worked with worldrenowned producers such as Gary Katz of Steely Dan and Tom Dowd (who produced Rod Stewart, Eric Clapton and Aretha Franklin). The band produced several hit singles, racked up silver disc sales and created a devoted world-wide fanbase. James has gone on to have a hugely successful solo career with seven critically acclaimed albums - one of which was BBC Radio 2’s Album of the Week. Internationally recognised as one of the great songwriters of recent decades, James draws from a broad palette of pop, folk, soul, country and blues influences. He twins darkly literate, melodically lush songcraft with rich vocals and virtuoso guitar work for every performance - leavening it all out with a wickedly acerbic humour. James Grant said: “Cottiers is a beautiful venue just round the corner from where I live, I’m very much looking forward to this show in September.” Scotland on Tour is taking place over a period of 12 months between April 2022 and 2023. The remaining concert taking place at Cottiers Theatre is Dallahan + support on Sunday 23 October. Kevin Morris, from The Fallen Angels Club who are promoting the show, said: "We are delighted through the Scotland On Tour programme to be given the opportunity James Grant www.facebook.com/jamthrawn to work with someone of James Grant's stature." Scotland on Tour supports the creation of hundreds of concerts and performances at much-loved arts centres, town halls and community venues across Scotland. More than 120 artists are set to perform at more than 100 venues across the country as part of the initiative. The project, which has been created and managed by Active Events, was made possible by £750,000 of Scottish Government backing and will focus on increasing the number of opportunities to showcase and enjoy live music, while bringing exciting acts to the doorstep of city, towns, villages and rural communities. The year-long Scotland on Tour bill includes both emerging and established artists with genre-spanning acts appearing across the breadth and width of the country, with rock, pop, jazz, classical, folk, trad and acoustic genres all being showcased.
