Steele the Show

Old Fruitmarket

 Please Note: This is a past event event.

Don't worry we have plenty more current events to choose from.

A concert in memory and celebration of the late great singer and songwriter Davy Steele, marking 2011’s tenth anniversary of his tragically early passing. As a member of Drinkers’ Drouth, Ceolbeg, Caledon, Urbn Ri, Clan Alba and Battlefield Band, and on his three fine solo albums, Davy joined the pantheon of Scotland’s most honest and eloquent voices, writing songs often rooted in the past and present of his beloved East Lothian home turf – though resonating much further afield – while giving new yet timeless expression to traditional material.

Curated by Patsy Seddon, tonight’s selection from his repertoire is performed by some of Davy’s favourite singers, including Dick Gaughan, Andy M. Stewart, Karine Polwart, Sally Barker, Kathy Stewart and Siobhan Miller, backed by a band featuring Andy Thorburn, Donald Hay, Mary Macmaster, Karen Tweed, Eilidh Shaw and Mairearad Green, with Phil Cunningham and Ian McCalman doubling as your hosts for the evening.
