Edinburgh Fringe 2025: Justin Currie (Del Amitri) at The Stand (August 23, 2-3pm)

On August 23rd - singer, songwriter and Del Amitri frontman Justin Currie discusses his life, work, music - and new book, The Tremolo Diaries - as we spend a virtual afternoon together round at his, with Justin's choice of a Scottish album, film and book to keep us occupied: he'll tell us what they mean to him, and why... He might even throw in some imaginary snacks. (Justin once brought me a Danish pastry that may or may not have been half-eaten, so let's just say, expectations are high.)

Come hang out for lunch with us! Tickets here!
