Honest Sam in return to city after 're-debut'
Honest Sam in return to city after 're-debut'
HONEST Sam And The Dealers, surfers of the late 1980s wave of new country music, are back in business.
The band, which took its name from a song by the legendary, ill-starred Elektra Records singer-songwriter Paul Siebel, reformed earlier this year, with singer-guitarist John Hinshelwood fronting a seven-piece comprising original members and a new rhythm section.
Their "re-debut" at the Berkeley Suite in Glasgow was so well received that they are returning to the venue on Wednesday, November 20.

LEFTFIELD music promoter Click Clack Club has added a Glasgow date to the monthly series of concerts it runs in Edinburgh.
There will be a rare appearance at the west end of the M8 by Captain Beefheart celebrants Orange Claw Hammer at the Glad Cafe in Pollokshaws Road on November 13. Also appearing will be Herschel 36, the improv-electronica outlet for jazz keyboards-drums partnership Paul Harrison and Stu Brown, and hip-hop poet Texture.
Orange Claw Hammer will headline a different triple bill the next evening at Click Clack Club's regular capital home of Henry's Cellar Bar.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
