Leroy Day is back and my favourites, Honk, will be playing. Here is Billy announcing plans for 2022.
Delighted to announce that Leroy Day will be returning after a 2 year absence and will be taking place as it has done since the first one 27 years ago on first Sunday in May. It will in essence be a delayed 25 year celebration of keeping this whole thing going in memory of our dear friend Leroy.
More details to follow but put 1st May at PJ Malloys in your diaries folks. It’s always Dunfermline’s number one musical extravaganza. ❤

Leroy.Original Honk line up.“Honk against our back drop. A lassie from New Zealand who was touring Scotland did it in the cellar of The Spider’s Web where I was working at the time. Cost us 2 pints of guinness and a bar lunch. 🤣💙” – Billy George.

Breaking News
In breaking news Anthemesque is released today and we wish Birrell or Biscuit every success. Here are all the details taken straight from https://www.whanga-records.com/label-releases
Birrell or Biscuit – Anthemesque Release Date – 1/10/21
‘Anthemesque’ is the latest single from Birrell or Biscuit.
This is as raw, open and brutally honest as music gets. Everything is laid out there. The anger and despair of a break up; sung, screamed, cried, over a dark brooding track that brings the passion and atmosphere to it’s peak. With choruses soaring through the melody and worming their way into your own psyche to be stuck there forever.
Where bands like Glasvegas end, is where Birrell or Biscuit begin. This is a man on the edge, laying his soul bare. A soul full of whisky and love!
Giving his lost love an anthem…esque.. The accompanying video is as brutal as the track and leaves the listener / viewer as heartbroken as the man himself.
Craig Birrell of Birrell or Biscuit wearing Katy McGukin’s straw hat last seen in the video for Anthemesque. Reports suggest ransom negotiations are at a delicate stage. Fingers crossed the hat will eventually be returned safely.
Please feel free to share this post and keep an eye out for the crowdfunding page to save Katy’s hat.
