Back to Skool

Your humble Fignesses are going back to school! We have a set at Heriot Watt University Student Union at an Acoustic Edinburgh special event running as part of Freshers’ Week. It’s on 23rd September, it’s free (we think) and anyone can go… you don’t have to be a student to get in. There’ll be loads [...]

Acoustic Edinburgh
