  • THE PROCLAIMERS October 2012
    THE PROCLAIMERS October 2012 After completing their last 95-date World tour in summer 2010 Craig and Charlie Reid spent over a year writing, subsequently recording their ninth studio album ‘Like Comedy’ in a Bath studio with producer Steve Evans at the helm. Released in April 2012 to great acclaim by leading independent label Cooking Vinyl. One of The Proclaimers greatest fans, comedian Matt Lucas has made his director's debut on the video for the single 'Spinning Around In The Air' where he wrote a script for a Golden wedding anniversary descending into drunken mayhem and in the process managed to persuade Craig and Charlie for a career first, dressing them up as elderly ladies. 2012 then saw The Proclaimers back out live with a busy summer in UK which included headlining the Hebridean and Big Tent festivals in Scotland, followed by another headline slot at Cambridge Festival, main stage appearances at the V Festivals in England and three shows at the Singapore Grand Prix. Another unique appearance occurred when The Proclaimers appeared on ITV’s Emmerdale – as headliners at Home Farm’s music festival, in an episode marking the beginning of the soap’s 40th birthday celebrations. October/November sees the Proclaimers head out on a six week, 28 date UK tour, with a further 8 dates added in December before finishing the year in style with a Hogmanay concert on the esplanade of Stirling Castle. October also saw filming begin on the movie version of the hugely successful award winning musical drama Sunshine On Leith, featuring songs by The Proclaimers .

  • Journal of Interdisciplinary Science Topics Where Would The
    Journal of Interdisciplinary Science Topics Where would The Proclaimers walk to for you? Katherine Davies & Matthew Perkins The Centre for Interdisciplinary Science, University of Leicester 27/03/2018 Abstract The Proclaimers released their no.1 hit song, I’m Gonna Be (500 miles) in 1988, claiming that they would walk 500 miles to “fall down at your door”. In the song, they say this phrase 8 times, totalling 4000 miles of walking. This paper investigates the locations that The Proclaimers could reach, how long it would take them, and the quantities of Scottish delicacies they would need to consume to fuel their journey. It was found that they could reach the major cities of Cairo, New York, and Dubai, with the furthest being Lahore in Pakistan. The journey to Lahore would take them 53.5 days to complete, needing 832.5 bars of deep fried Mars bars, 237.9 kg of haggis, or 249.8 L of Irn-Bru to provide the energy for the journey. Introduction In 1988 The Proclaimers released their hit song, I’m Gonna Be (500 miles) [1]. In the song, they talk about how far they would be willing to walk to “fall down at your door”. Throughout the whole song they mention walking 500 miles several times. Figure 1 – Map of the world, the region Previous papers [2, 3] have worked out the likelihood shaded blue is the places that are located of walking 500 miles and 500 more, without food. The within 4000 miles of Edinburgh, shown by the paper found out that The Proclaimers would lose red dot [4].

  • Gord Downie, the Sadies and the Conquering Sun,Album O
    Album of the Week: The Orwells’ Disgraceland Rock ‘n’ Roll from Chicago What do you get when a group of kids in their late teens and early 20s grab a bunch of instruments, turn the amps up to 11 and join forces with a lead singer who looks like Robert Plant? You get a rip- roaring, brain-melting rock ‘n’ roll band from Chicago called The Orwells. They have their second album, Disgraceland, out this week and it’s a doozy of a record. Each track has the right amount of grit, angst and devil-may-care attitude to give your ears exactly what they need. If Disgraceland doesn’t kick popular music on its ass in 2014, I might actually lose faith in humanity. It’s that good. Despite being so young, this quintet has been making music together since high school. Seven years later, you could consider them music vets even though they can’t legally drink. What impresses me the most about The Orwells’ new album is the perfect combination of production quality and powerful songs. Ranging from tales about innocent teenage love, to dramatic suicide and one night stands, Disgraceland is as rock ‘n’ roll as it gets. After listening to this beauty, I can’t imagine a better album coming out in 2014. Racist owners of sports franchises, angry middle-aged men throwing rocks at Ferraris, neo-Nazi reality TV one-hit-nevers and people talking about how World War III is going to happen by the end of the decade. We live on a pretty crazy, messed-up planet.

  • “[Arty Hill and the Long Gone Daddys Are] Firmly Rooted in the Country
    “[Arty Hill and the Long Gone Daddys are] firmly rooted in the country traditions of Hank Williams and George Jones, yet find equal footing in the earth quakin` rattle of Sun-era rockabilly...[T]hese guys make classic Texas singer/songwriter country and honky-tonk much like Austin`s super-group Heybale! It`s good fun if youre looking to move your feet, and good for listening too as Hill`s story tunes are as catchy as the ones that jump. - Miles of Music "Tompall Glaser and Harlan Howard's "The Streets of Baltimore" has reigned as the Official Baltimore Country Song for decades, but [in Arty Hill's "I Left Highlandtown"] there's a respectable rival... Like the rest of the Hill originals on the new "Back on the Rail," it slaps lyrics that'd impress at any guitar pull on top of the kind of basic Tele-twang-and-shuffle backing custom-built for red-lit barrooms." -Lee Gardner / Baltimore City Paper "Jackson Shake, Drifting In, and Back On The Rail perfectly deliver that jumping old country vibe so many try to nail and so many fail at. Great songs, great production, and great singing/picking – it’s all here. And pay close attention to Tammerlane. It is a masterpiece.” - Jason Ringenberg / Farmer, Musician (formerly of Jason & The Scorchers) [Arty Hill’s] versions of Hank Williams gospel favorites were favorites of many in the crowd at the Hank Williams 82nd Birthday Celebration. Later that night, a gathering of new fans sang with him at a local watering hole.

  • Music Therapy Master Song Resource List
    University of Kansas Music Therapy Song Repertoire Resource List Spring 2021 The KU music therapy song repertoire resource list acts as a reference for music therapy students as they work to develop a diverse repertoire of songs for use in their musical, pre-clinical, and clinical work. As such, it is a both a document of important songs that have historically been used in music therapy processes, and a living, breathing document that will be updated intermittently to maintain the dynamic of new musics. Songs are categorized and divided into music genres. Genres provide some level of diversity. Current genres in the book are provided as a general list on page 2, and then each genre is presented alphabetically, with songs in each genre also presented alphabetically. This approach helps to make finding songs easier. Some songs will be cross-referenced. Each song will include either an original artist or the song’s author (or both), as well as the year the song was written. This list can help students learn more songs, not only for singing and accompaniment purposes, but also for using recordings of songs when appropriate. Students are strongly encouraged to locate and listen to original recordings of songs to help their learning processes. Original notation in lead sheets is also helpful, especially for students that excel in reading. A good ear and solid music reading skills help for music therapists to be efficient in their learning of new songs. Also, looking up the history of a song helps a clinician make important decisions on how the music may connect with a client, increasing the potential for its effective use.

  • Sunshine on Leith – Review
    The largest language school within Vallès Oriental is pleased to provide you with this review, crosswords and contest. Enjoy the film!!! Sunshine on Leith – Review Directed by Dexter Fletcher and featuring the songs of acclaimed Scottish folk-pop act The Proclaimers (whose second album’s title track gives the film its name, and whose biggest hit ‘I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)’ has been embraced by popular culture), Sunshine on Leith is a fun, extravagant - yet, occasionally, subtle - musical, replete with all the drama and emotion that the genre necessitates. The story follows lifelong best friends Davy and Ally, played by George MacKay and Kevin Guthrie respectively, as they return from a tour of duty in Afghanistan to their homes and families in Edinburgh. Ally’s girlfriend Liz, Davy’s sister (Freya Mavor), is a nurse; she introduces Davy to her English friend, Yvonne (Antonia Thomas) at a pub on their first night back, and the two begin a romantic relationship, as both Davy and Ally adjust to their return. Meanwhile, Davy’s father Robert ‘Rab’ Henshaw (Peter Mullan) discovers that he has a daughter he has never met, much to the shock of his wife Jean (Jane Horrocks). Thus, a web of stories is spun, upon which the cast do The Proclaimers proud with some sensitive and engaging translations of their songs. Amid all the drama - the fights and reconciliations, proposals and hospitalisations - is a warm, beating heart: given that the film is so often described as Scotland’s (and The Proclaimers’) very own Mamma Mia, that should come as no real surprise.
