Also on the bill are: acoustic performers Charlie & Co, singer-songwriter Jamie Lee Morley, Nicole Carlin, Andy Jackson, Rebecca Traynor and Saskia Eng among others.

The family-focused event has been organised by LBC member Kelly Dickinson who has previously brought Scottish music icon Horse to Camelon Bowling Club for a sell-out show, as well as comedy duo The Dolls.

Kelly said: “These were complete sell-outs and I’m hoping this year’s at Laurieston will be too.

“It’s great for the villagers of Laurieston to have so much talent to come and see.”
