Eddi Reader & John Douglas

Award-winning Scottish singer-songwriter Eddi Reader has had a rich and varied musical career, with the short-lived but warmly remembered Fairground Attraction really bringing her into the limelight and to the attention of a much wider audience. The band’s single Perfect and parent album First of a Million Kisses both topped the British charts in 1989. Eddi Reader and her husband John Douglas are back on the road as a duo again. Following a highly successful tour last year, they are travelling the country again in May and June 2026. This time, as promised, they have their newly recorded debut album, as a duo, to play for you. Irvine-born John Douglas has been singer and guitarist for The Trash Can Sinatras for over 30 years, as well as writing and recording extensively under his own name. The shows on this tour will feature songs from the new album, some songs from both Eddi & John’s considerable catalogue, as well as a few surprises. Eddi & John will rely on their voices, guitars, ukulele, autoharp & concertina to bring the songs to life. Each night will have its own special, spontaneous vibe of song & storytelling. Come along and see what these two very special artists create together. This event will be SEATED. Anyone with accessibility concerns is welcome to call the venue to discuss. £20 advance, £25 on the door.
