Iron Claw

Iron Claw is a band which formed in Dumfries, Scotland in 1969. The band was formed by original members Jimmy Ronnie, Ian McDougall, and Alex Wilson. They were joined by singer Mike Waller in 1970. Wilson, the group's bass guitarist, decided to form a band after seeing a Led Zeppelin concert in 1969 and the band was eventually named after a lyric from King Crimson's "21st Century Schizoid Man". The band originally performed covers by blues rock artists such as Free, Johnny Winter, Ten Years After, and Taste but soon began writing and performing original compositions.

Kris Drever, John McCusker & Roddy Woomble

Titularly not a single artist or what could be described as a "band", this is a collaboration of three of Scotland's top musicians. The poetic vocals and song writing prowess of Scottish rockers Idlewild's front man, Roddy Woomble combines with acclaimed folk musician Kris Drever and superlative fiddle player and fellow folkster John McCusker. Having appeared on several mixes and other collaborations with other artists individually the three chose to work together to produce their "début" album "Before the Ruin" released in September 2008.

When two life long friends come together and add in two neighbourhood musicians to form a band, you know there is an immediate bond created, simply due to shared experiences. Two years down the line, Kemy, Matty, Murphy and Dave are ready to take their message to the world. The Ads are simply a four-piece band from the outskirts of Glasgow getting down to some serious musical invention.
