About this show
The Sorries return to the Fringe in a new venue with an hour of traditional Scottish songs, fun and excellent musicianship. Douglas and Marty sing, play and banter their way through a Corries-inspired collection of uplifting traditional music, with an ear to the history of the tunes and the country. ‘Foot stomping, hand clapping, sing-along-a-Scotland – very enjoyable’ * (ThreeWeeks). 'Authentic, lively and hugely, hugely enjoyable' * (BroadwayBaby.com). 'A must for lovers of Scots songs' (EdinburghSpotlight.com). 'Their... revision of Johnny Lad is entertainingly true to a noble, public-figure swatting tradition' (Herald).
