RAB Noakes is a force to be reckoned with in the world of music in Scotland and beyond and next month he will be in Lochgelly.
Born in St Andrews he has been a well-loved songwriter-performer for over 50 years.
Join him for the official launch of this thrilling new LP on Wednesday August 29 at Lochgelly Centre, a venue Rab shares a fond history with.
Explaining its significance, he says: “I’ve always liked the Lochgelly Centre. It was a great addition to Fife’s cultural environment when it opened in 1976. It represents the need for, and wisdom of, focussing attention on places, like Lochgelly, which have had little attention through the years. I once lived relatively close by, at Torbain Farm cottages, on the Auchtertool – Kirkcaldy road.
“My initial performance there was in 1984. It was the time of the miners’ strike and in a conversation with Billy Connolly he said ‘If you’re doing anything in Fife, count me in.’ John Watt opened the concerts."
Tickets are available here priced £10 (+£1 reservation fee).
