Drever, McCusker, Woomble, Brunton Theatre, Edinburgh Festival Fringe

 The trio reunited, and accompanied by McCuskers Irish cousin on harmonium, fiddle and vocals.  They looked delighted to be back together, back in front of a live audience, and joked about their lack of practice time.  You wouldn't have known...

They mostly stuck to weel kent material from their magnificent album Before The Ruin, but each had a chance to perform some of their own solo work too.  Drever on his own sang a couple of songs from his own recent albums, McCusker played a few tunes with his cousin, and Drever joined them to add his accompaniment, while Woomble sang a song from his first solo album.

Great music, plenty of laughs, lots of self deprecating humour.  McCusker is a good storyteller, Woomble laid back, Drever sharp.  A wonderful gig.
