Bruce Watson, founder and guitarist of Big Country, plays classic hits from the band's five decades at The Drill.
Bruce Watson plays The Drill on Wednesday 26 May 2027, starting at 19:00. He's the founder and guitarist of Big Country, the band that spent the 1980s high up the charts alongside singer Stuart Adamson. They were one of the biggest acts of the decade: their debut album The Crossing went platinum, and the follow-up Steeltown reached number one.
On this tour, Watson revisits the songs that defined that era, including 'Fields Of Fire', 'Wonderland', 'Chance' and 'Look Away'. Between the music, he reflects on the band's five decades in rock, with references to Stuart Adamson, Live Aid, the Grammys, Kate Bush, The Jam and Pete Townshend. It's as much a look back at the band's history as it is a set of their songs.
