Crumbling Jack

Crumbling Jack

Crumbling Jack is one of Scotlands most exciting new artists
 
Song writer AA Reid and singer Ian Robertson took their show to the Queens Hall Edinburgh in March 2011, with a set comprising of 18 original songs, and some of Reids outstanding poetry all drawn from his first collection "The Poems & Songs of AA Reid"
Joining them on stage were some of Scotlands finest musicians including Bill Craib, Gaetan Brajus, Ed Kelly, Grant Bolton, Slawek Justynski, Ben Macdonald, Doug Kemp and Verona Chard
Crumbling Jack and friends received a warm welcome by a very appreciative audience as they moved seamlessly across the musical genres from pop and rock into country and folk, taking in blues, jazz and even classical composition along the way with their stunning new material written by Reid, and Robertson's extraordinary vocal delivery.
Some of the new songs, set to become standards in the new decade, include Don't Turn Your Back On Me This Way, Safe In Your Arms, I Found A Voice and I Can Hardly Bear To Think Of You.
