While this is still true, it’s not the only music being performed by Scottish musicians today. Now there is the sound of FOURGOODMEN, the latest manifestation of Celtic Song. What makes FOURGOODMEN unique is their personnel. They are all original members of major Scottish bands who have enjoyed huge success in the Music Industry. Between them, they have had almost 60 top 40 singles and 20 top 10 albums, 8 of them # 1's. Total records sold to date: 40,000,000. Now, in the 21st Century, they have come together to perform the hit songs that became the soundtrack for the lives of a generation, world-wide. The band's debut show was at Glasgow Green, July 2005, performing to an audience of 15,000. Then top of the bill at The Mull of Kintyre Music Festival, Campbeltown, August 2005. Further high profile concerts and festivals in Scotland and Ireland have followed since. All sell outs. Among their other notable appearances were Real Radio's Big In Falkirk Weekend in April 30, 2006; July 1st at “The Big Weekend” Scottish Borders Music Festival in Galashiels, Scotland; July 8-9, 2006 outdoors at Glasgow Green and the RetroFest in Scotland in August 2007.Due to the reaction FOURGOODMEN have experienced live and requests from radio stations in America, the UK and Europe for fresh material to play, the band have started work on an album of brand new songs. FOURGOODMEN hope they will become new hits to add to the already established ones.On their debut tour of North America in the winter of 2006 the band played all the major 80’s hits by Simple Minds and Big Country that all their fans were clamoring to hear once again as well as a selection of their new songs. This CD is a Limited Edition Tour Sampler featuring 4 live tracks and 4 studio tracks which are demo versions of songs from the forthcoming CD. NEW LOWER CD & DOWNLOAD PRICES!
