HEADLINER: TV SMITH & THE BORED TEENAGERS
Legendary frontman of The Adverts, one of the original 1976/77 UK punk bands, and one of the finest songwriters to emerge from the first wave of punk, TV Smith has never stopped evolving. Decades into an uncompromising career, he's still touring relentlessly, still writing incredible songs, and still proving that punk never had an expiry date.
This isn't nostalgia. This is a living, breathing punk legend, backed by The Bored Teenagers, bringing The Adverts' classic songs to life alongside the outstanding solo material that has made TV Smith one of punk's most respected and enduring artists.
As Henry Rollins puts it:
"A huge inspiration... the best songwriter of the '76/'77 punk generation."
SPECIAL GUEST: BILLY LIAR
Edinburgh's own - but rarely seen on home turf - Billy Liar has built an international reputation through relentless touring and unforgettable performances. Signed to Pirates Press Records, his songs are packed with honesty, melody and punk rock spirit.
As Tim Armstrong of Rancid says:
"Billy Liar is one of my favourite songwriters. Powerful and honest."
PLUS: SHOCK & AWE
Edinburgh punk legends Shock & Awe open the night in style, with whispers of a brand-new record making its debut... and with it being almost Bobby Awe's birthday, expect the celebrations to start early. It's going to be one hell of a party.
This is more than just another gig - it's a chance to witness one of punk's true greats with his full band, celebrate some of Scotland's finest punk talent, and pack out the legendary Bannermans for a night to remember.
Don't miss it. See you down the front.
