We are delighted to announce that our Saturday night headliner is the multi million selling alternative rock act Ash who have an incredible 18 top 40 singles to choose from including ‘Girl from Mars’, ‘Shining Light’, ‘Burn Baby Burn’, ‘Oh Yeah’ and ‘Goldfinger’.
With a career spanning 18 years, the Irish rock group have lost none of the energy that saw them debut on Top Of The Pops whilst awaiting their ‘A’ level results and since notch up 5 studio albums (and a mini-album) together.
This is a very special booking for the organisers as Ash were the first major act Beyond promoted in the Highlands ten years ago. Back in December 2001 the band came up and played two intimate shows, one in Inverness and the second here in Ullapool at The Seaforth ahead of the release of the bands most successful album ‘Free all Angels’. This October see’s the band go out to play some live dates to celebrate the 10th anniversary of that release.
Also appearing over the weekend are, Friday night headliners The Feeling who have a back catalogue of hits to choose from including, ‘Never Be Lonely’, ‘Fill My Little World’, ‘Sewn’ and ‘Set My World On Fire’, one of the most influencial punk bands of the 70's Buzzcocks, Fratellis frontman Jon Fratelli, Scotlands fast rising stars Kassidy, Admiral Fallow, Rachel Sermanni who will be treating us with her last full band show of the year, recently reformed and possibly providing the biggest singalong of the weekend, the Bluebells, Tiree's folk rock stars Skerryvore, the ska juggernaut that is Bombskare, recent goNorth on tour additions Paws, The Imagineers and Finding Albert, finally of course our very own Ullapool Pipe Band.
