Press Release – John Howarth
BIG COUNTRY, the Legendary Scottish Celtic Rock band, return for the first time since 2019 for The Greatest Hits Tour. Setlist includes – In A Big Country, Chance, Fields of Fire, Look Away, Wonderland plus much more!
Featuring the band's de facto theme song — In a Big Country, their debut album, THE CROSSING, combined anthemic post-punk with folk-inspired guitar sounds to become the leading representative of 80's Celtic Rock. It was a surprisingly influential mix that would inspire an entirely new wave of British rock artists who openly embraced their Celtic heritage. BIG COUNTRY achieved major international success plus two Grammy nominations and for a time rivalled fellow 'big sounding' British guitar rock acts U2 and Simple Minds.
Big guitars, big drums, big checks on their shirts, BIG COUNTRY were well named!
