    One of the UK’s biggest and hottest live bands is coming to 
    the Ross Bandstand, Princes Street Gardens this July 
    for a unique live show. The sensational 9piece Big Vern n the Shootahs are renowned throughout the live music circuit as the ultimate feel-good party band.  
    There really is nothing to compare to a Big Vern n the Shootahs gig.  A powerhouse phenomenon 
    which has been rocking audiences all over the UK since 1989.  The Princes Street crowd is guaranteed
    a spectacular show with some of the funkiest vibes you’ll have ever heard. This band is at the forefront of live 
    entertainment in the UK and abroad, whether at festivals, corporate show or even just on their own.   As individuals, the band has a great pedigree, including Rupert Black on keyboards (The Pretenders, The Alarm, Talk Talk, Midge Ure), the Big Vern Horns (Wet Wet Wet, Danny Wilson, Gallagher & Lyle, Jim Diamond) and Kevin ‘Morph’ Dobie on guitar (Donny Munro solo, BBC Quay sessions)
    Big Vern n the Shootahs spokesman, Malcolm Button says the band is relishing their return to Edinburgh;
     
    “We love playing live and we are delighted to get the chance to spread our bands wings coming to Edinburgh and performing in such an iconic location. We couldn’t resist the chance to play at a great venue like the bandstand and we’ll have our own fans, locals and tourists along to come and hear 
    some great tunes.  Everyone enjoys great live music and we’re just the band to put a smile on your face. We are celebrating being together as a band for 30 years this 
    year and we’ll have a few surprises in store through our set” Always immaculately turned out and tuned up! Big Vern are always sure to have the audience bouncing in no time. A big name(literally) and a big band, they are a Premier League outfit and second to no-one on the live music circuit.  Classic funk, soul and party music augmented with great stage routines and a kicking fat sound. Go and catch them while you can, you will not be disappointed.  Go grab a ticket and see this band live, let your hair down and see why they are still the best at what they do after 30 years of live performances
