Born To Be Wide returns with a special evening celebrating the Scottish capital’s music scene, both past and present. Taking place at the Fruitmarket on Monday 22 August, it will begin with the book launch of Edinburgh’s Greatest Hits, which charts the city’s musical history.
Co-authors Jim Byers and Fiona Shepherd will be in conversation with Born To Be Wide founder, Olaf Furniss, and will be signing copies on the night. They will highlight some of the featured stories, how the book was conceived and how the music scene can continue to thrive. Members of the audience will also be encouraged to share their own recollections and perspectives.
Following the conversation, guest DJs including individuals featured in the book and pillars of today’s music community, will play their favourite records by Edinburgh acts.
Speakers:
Fiona Shepherd (The Scotsman/Glasgow Music City Tours), Jim Byers (Edinburgh Music Lovers).
Host: Olaf Furniss (Born To Be Wide/Wide Days)
