The Outskirts
The Outskirts are an acoustic trio based in Perthshire who have been jamming together through the early hours around kitchen tables since they met as teenagers.
Bonding over a love for all things music and lager, they stayed friends but the songs never developed past after parties. After a few years playing music separately they decided to take a gig in a local pub and haven’t looked back since, making a name for themselves in the Perthshire and Glasgow pub scene.
With 2 years of gigging and 30 minutes of practice under their belt, they started writing together across the same kitchen tables they shared cans over years ago. They made their festival debut opening the discovery stage at last year’s Heartland Festival, their first time playing original songs.
It went down a treat and they cant wait to return with new music and new shoes. Dishing out big tunes and shite patter, they’re not to be missed. If you are a fan of country & indie melodies, bands falling out on stage and nice haircuts, get down early for The Outskirts.
