Music fans are in for a treat this summer as two festivals make their return.
Both TRNSMT and Edinburgh Summer Sessions are boasting a packed line-up, with a host of musicians lined up to perform to fans of all ages.
First up, the summer sessions will return to the capital in August, headlined by the legendary Tom Jones.
The Voice judge’s co-star Anne-Marie will also perform against the backdrop of Edinburgh Castle, with other sets including Mercury Prize winner Michael Kiwanuka and hometown heroes Travis and Simple Minds.
Australian Britpop inspired band DMA’s are also on the bill.
Meanwhile, the hugely popular TRANSMT festival will return to Glasgow Green from September 10.
Headliners Courteeners, Liam Gallagher and The Chemical Brothers will delight the crowds during the three-day event.
There will be additional performances from Primal Scream, Snow Patrol, Sam Fender, Blossoms, Dermot Kennedy, Amy Macdonald and Tom Odell, among others.
