The Same Sky, 30th Anniversary Show with strings and guests

A final hurrah for the same sky - after 30 years. A glorious, celebratory concert of the anniversary of the classic album ‘The same sky’, with full band and strings post national tour.

In March 1989, the first single, “You could be forgiven”, was released and it was so different from anything else at the time  - thrilling first plays on Radio 1 - the track absolutely setting the bar - an incredibly unique Scottish voice and brilliant band. The first major UK tour followed and in 1990, tours across Europe, including opening for artists such as Tina Turner and BB King. 

There are many great songs on this album but arguably the ultimate song from this album and possibly any of her albums, is “Careful”,  a beautiful and timeless song.

This is a very special night which will inevitably conjure up treasured times from over the years for the entire audience. It’s a rare evening, celebrating and playing the album in its entirety - the full band show with strings - a set choc-full of the classic songs.  

“…the soul deep purr of Horse McDonald,” 

“ owns one of the finest voices of modern times, soul and intelligence combined”
