Big Vern 'n' The Shootahs
| | Big Vern 'n' The Shootahs are a nine piece soul/funk band who are known as one of the finest live bands in Scotland. In their 21 year history, they have served up their brand of soul with a twist.
Big Vern are equally at home performing at World Cup celebrations in Glasgow Green, and a festival crowd at Free at The Dee in Aberdeen, and in more intimate settings. To date they have raised over 2.5 million pounds for charity.
City Of Soul
The City Of Soul project is a group of musicians fronted by the great Jim Diamond, who share a common love of Soul music from the era of Stax, Atlantic and Tamla Motown.
The project was initiated after a conversation between Jim Diamond and Sir Tom Hunter at a Cash for Kids event.
The project was financed by Sir Tom Hunter, and proceeds of the recording released on the 3rd October 2011 go to Sir Tom Hunter’s charity, Cash for Kids.
