Ed Byrne - Warming up in the Cold

(October 24th November 17th)

Ed Byrne is set to preview some of his new material in advance of a massive UK tour in 2011 with a string of intimate dates throughout Scotland this winter.  

Ed’s really looking forward to these shows and not content with working hard on stage, he will also be working just as hard on his days off. Rather than relaxing and putting his feet up, Ed will be indulging in another passion of his climbing some of the countries most breathtaking Monros, providing him the opportunity to try out his new base layers.
