Back in 2023, I saw Blue Rose Code for the first time. What I saw was a stripped down performance from two talented guys with acoustic guitars, with Ross Wilson on vocals.
I was super excited to hear that Ross was going to be touring his new album with a full band, and so I bought tickets to see him at Shrewsbury’s Theatre Severn.
What an amazing night. The band sounded amazing. The tunes I’d heard as beautiful acoustic pieces suddenly took on a new colourful life.
Honestly, there were moments of profoundly moving music.
i couldn’t recommend Blue Rose Code enough, particularly those who enjoy Scottish music, folk, or just brilliant storytelling set to glorious music.
As in 2023, I spoke to Ross after the gig to congratulate him (and get a signed album!), and he was very gracious and kind.
10/10 from me. No notes.
