Edinburgh’s alternative folk artist, Withered Hand makes a very welcome return to the Tolbooth.
Anyone who managed to catch his performance last time around couldn’t have failed to be impressed by the sheer beauty of his music and the tender, autobiographical and downright hilarious lyrics of his songs.

He has recently been receiving regular airplay from the likes of Giedeon Coe, Marc Riley, Tom Robinson and Vic Galloway and has recorded live music sessions on BBC Radio Scotland and BBC 6 Music.
