Gerry Cinnamon performing at TRNSMT Festival (Gary Mather for Live4ever)
Gerry Cinnamon will now play his outdoor shows in Glasgow, Cork, Belfast and Dublin in the June of next year.
As it stands, other UK shows booked for August and September are unchanged, but the touring behind his recently released second album The Bonny is likely to be further affected. “He harnesses the old Celtic impulse to sing songs of love and life at the top of your lungs, which therefore makes reviews such as this pointless; like Stereophonics and The Courteeners, Gerry Cinnamon is now critic-proof,” our album review reads.
“The songs come from a place of universal truth and are folkies the likes of which have been sung since man invented the guitar. Written about the people, by the people, for the people.”
“There’s a lot to be said for both the refusal to concede and the ability to tap into something primal, but ultimately it comes down to whether you dig it or you don’t.”
