ALAN MURRAY AND FRIENDS IN CONCERT

Saturday 10th October, 2026, 7.30pm
St James the Less Church Hall,
Broomhill Road, Penicuik
Mostly folk songs … happy, wistful, silly, and singalong.

Apoligies – this is not a folk club event, but Alan is the club’s chairman, so please blame nepotism for this flagrant abuse of the web page!

Alan is a singer, guitarist and songwriter, well-known to his friends (!). This evening will include voices, tunes and songs from Alan’s family and friends. There will be folk classics to sing along to, including some Rabbie Burns; also songs from Dougie MacLean, Kate Rusby and Richard Thompson. You might even get a morsel of McCartney or a tad of Taylor (Swift, not James!).

Alan’s own songs have been covered by the likes of Stravaig and the McCalmans – you’ll get a small helping of them, probably including “Call it Alba” – his greatest hit.

Tickets £10 each, including a finger buffet during the interval. Alan will offer two approximately 45-minute sets of music with a 30-minute break.
