Eddi celebrates 40 years on stage with special show
Published: Monday 4 April 2022
Get ready for a ‘Perfect’ night in the company of one of Scotland’s favourite singers.
Eddi Reader brings her ’40 Years Live’ concert tour to Lanark Memorial Hall on Friday 15 April at 7.30pm.
From her earliest years playing the folk clubs of western Scotland and learning how to street sing across Europe (like her hero Edith Piaf) Eddi’s path soon lead her to a professional career in music as a backing singer for Eurythmics and Gang of Four. Her band Fairground Attraction had huge international success and number one hits with ‘Perfect’ and debut album ‘First of a Million Kisses’ which stormed the charts in the late 1980s.
Throughout her successful solo career, Eddi has released consistently great works, including highly acclaimed albums such as ‘The Songs of Robert Burns’ and last years ‘Cavalier’. She has won Brit Awards, been awarded four honorary degrees, an MBE, sung to millions on some of the world’s greatest concert and festival stages and collaborated with a host of stars across a myriad of genres including Folk, Jazz, Pop, World, Punk and even Classical work with various orchestras.
Tickets for the gig are priced at £26 and are available from the SLLC Box Office.
