The Proclaimers

The Proclaimers are a Scottish band composed of identical twin brothers Charlie and Craig Reid. They are best known for the songs I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles), Sunshine on Leith, I'm On My Way and Letter from America.

The last few years have seen The Proclaimers grace main stages at the likes of V Festival, T In The Park, Isle Of Wight Festival, Womad and Glastonbury in-between regular touring across the globe. Craig and Charlie have reached the rarefied status that few have been able to achieve: with nearly three decades of career longevity, they are as innovative as ever and with every album and show played, they’ve continued to garner new fans.

In March 2007, they topped the UK singles chart with a new rendition of their classic I’m Going to Be (500 Miles), a collaboration with comedians Peter Kay and Matt Lucas for Comic Relief, raising over a million pounds for charity in the process. After taking 2014 off they have returned to performing for 2015 and we are very much looking forward to welcoming them back!
