Gallery: Tide Lines' sold-out Sunday concert at Tall Ships festival in Aberdeen
Sunday night at the Tall Ships Festival ended on a high note as Highland folk-pop band Tide Lines delivered a powerful headline performance on the Quayside stage. They were joined by Banchory-born singer-songwriter Calum Bowie, who warmed up the local crowd with an energetic set. The concert was a sell-out, with tickets released for a minimum £5 donation and all proceeds supporting Aberdeen's RNLI lifeboat station. Despite the damp weather, thousands gathered along the harbour, surrounded by the towering masts of the Tall Ships. The weather didn't dampen spirits as festivalgoers enjoyed an unforgettable night of live music by the waterfront. With the ships in port until Tuesday, there's still time to explore the vessels and enjoy the final days of Scotland's biggest event of the year. Press and Journal photographer was there to capture the best moments. You can keep up with all the updates throughout the festival on our live blog.

Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad It won't be the first time there for Calum – in November last year, the venue was the scene of Calum's Scottish Music Awards 'Breakthrough' triumph, from which a live version of fan favourite single Love Lost was released. Since then, Calum has released his first full EP Through The Window including heartfelt, acoustic driven bangers Dream Of My Own, Take Me Home, Wherever She Goes and live favourite Your Anthem. Like every Scottish artist, headlining the Barrowland has always been a goal for Calum. 'This will actually be my third time playing there,' he says, 'but my first headline so it's a real landmark moment. I played Tenement Trail at the Barras in 2022, early in the day with Vistas headlining. I remember the maze backstage, how big it was and looking up at the iconic tiles. It was amazing to get my Scottish Music Award there, what a great night, although you only get to play a couple of songs. I'm absolutely buzzing to headline it this time and play my full show.'
