Info
The Proclaimers play King George's Hall, Blackburn, on 20 October 2026. Twins Craig and Charlie Reid formed the group in Leith in the early 80s, starting as an acoustic duo before widening into a lean, band-driven sound that draws on folk rock, roots and pop with a punk edge. Their hallmark remains close harmonies, direct songwriting and a distinctly Scottish vocal grain.
On stage, the set often shifts from stripped-back acoustic songs to fuller, hard-stepping numbers. Staples like Letter from America, I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles) and Sunshine on Leith sit alongside newer material from Angry Cyclist and Dentures Out, where personal stories and social observations trade places. The focus is melody, rhythm and plain-spoken lyrics that carry across a room, whether delivered by two voices and guitars or with a full backing band.
