Absolutely stunning show in a suitably matching venue. Paying respects to the history of Idlewild without being bound to or defined by it, the set covered the full spectrum of his career and was delivered with passion. An incredible artist continuing to evolve naturally.

Great night, great venue, classic Idlewid songs mixed with solo stuff and evidence that Roddy can’t tune his guitar for love nor money - and openly admits it! Can’t wait for new Idlewild material as promised by Roddy

Roddy is so great. I've enjoyed his work since early Idlewild - a learned wordsmith. The new record isn't quite as "jazz" as reviews suggest, but mixes hints at avant gardism with catchy hooks and Americana - at least, that's how the live performance came off. Also, it's a progression to something more accessible than the "folk" of his previous releases. His new band is tight, very good. The room should have been more full for such a talent - we need to see him back here again.
