🎶 One Night Only
BBC award-winning songwriter Adam Holmes returns to Edinburgh for a headline show at New Town Church.
“To hear his voice alone is worth the ticket price.” — The Guardian
This is a different kind of night.
Over the past few years, these songs have been carried through small rooms across the country. Quiet spaces. Close audiences. The kind of shows where every word lands.
This is the same spirit.
But held in a larger room.
New Town Church brings a different kind of stillness. High ceilings. Long reverb. The sense that something is being placed carefully into the air and allowed to hang there.
It changes how songs feel.
It changes how a night unfolds.
Expect a full acoustic set drawn from across the catalogue, including Songwriter, Hope Park and more. Songs that have been shaped in small rooms, now given a wider frame without losing their closeness.
🌟 Very Special Guest
Robyn Stapleton
(BBC Radio Scotland Traditional Musician)
Robyn is one of Scotland’s most respected traditional singers. Her voice carries the weight of the tradition it comes from. Clear, unforced, and deeply rooted.
This is not a support slot in the usual sense.
It is two strands of Scottish song meeting in the same room. Contemporary and traditional, held side by side.
Two distinct voices.
One shared space.
