Familiar to many thousands of music fans as the front man in the Scottish rock band Idlewild, Roddy Woomble's naturally poetic writing and consistent touring have won him many thousands of fans all over the world and he is widely regarded as one of Scotland 's finest songwriters. A multi-faceted singer and songwriter, Roddy has a broad palate of styles and influences and his solo materials moves through folk rock to country to upbeat horn-led pop to indie rock to dark jazz elements, all held together by his soft Scottish baritone and thoughtful, often mysterious lyrics.

This tour celebrates the release of Roddy and the band’s new album entitled 'Live in the Inner Hebrides'. The album was recorded in concert in 2011 and 2013 on the Isle of Mull and is a strictly limited release, available exclusively at gigs.
