    Tours: Alasdair Roberts Band and Kiila

    Fri 12th Mar 2010 - Sat 20th Mar 2010

    Glasgow-based Alasdair Roberts has now released 5 albums of tender yet driving folk music, since his 'discovery' via Will 'Bonnie Prince Billy' Oldham's advocacy on hearing a demo tape.

    Roberts takes his earthen craft on the road for this tour in the guise of the Alasdair Roberts Band, a 4-piece comprised of himself, member sof his old band Appendix Out and members of Glasgow band Tatty Toes.

    This will be the first ever UK tour by Kiila, a collective based in Turku, Finland. Kiila typify the exciting new wave of music coming out of Finland in recent years, typified by the output of the label Fonal.

    This tour is produced by Newcastle-based promoters No-Fi, with the support of the Scottish Arts Council's Tune Up programme, Finnish organizations ESEK and LUSES, and AV10 Festival.
