Details:
To coincide with his album release âSongs that chose meâ Richard Anderson completed a two week tour of the âBeansceneâ outlets in Scotland. He followed that by a week performing in some London clubs including Leonards, Tommy Flynns, Camden Town and The Comedy Pub in Oxenden St

Now Richard is opening for Peter Bruntnell on July 20th at The Anchor Inn, Anchor Lane, Barcombe, Lewes, East Sussex BN8 5BS. This is a birthday bash for Mike Lance.


Formerly based in Glasgow, Anderson left his hometown (Annan, Dumfriesshire)
for the city again in 2000. As a member of the Glasgow Songwriters Club, Anderson developed as a performer and found favour with club audiences - being voted âBest newcomerâ the following year.
âSet packed full of memorable songsâ â Glasgow Songwriterâs Magazine.

As well as playing everywhere thatâs anywhere (King Tutâs Wah Wah Hut, Acoustic
Affair, Nice n Sleazyâs, Stereo the list goes on), Anderson wasnât slow to come to the
attention of radio producers either. The lyrics to his first single âIâm not getting into
conversationâ caught the attention of BBC Radio Scotland, leading to a live session
on the stationâs âCeltic Connectionsâ programme and subsequent record company
interest.

Despite more play on the âBrand new Opryâ Show and being on the radar of the
industryâs movers and shakers, Anderson continued to plough his own solo/acoustic
furrow. Introduced to David Scott, through the New Deal for Musicianâs Scheme, a
creative partnership was forged which saw The Pearlfisherâs frontman produce the
E.P. âJust as I amâ which again found favour with producers on BBC Radio Scotland
âTomMortonâ, and âIain Andersonâ joining the cause this time.

Returning to his hometown in 2003 to finish writing âSongs that chose meâ and with
David Scott at the controls, Richard Anderson created a collection of twelve truly
memorable tracks.

Now living overlooking the Solway, he continues to gain consistent press coverage and earlier this year attracted the attention of Loose Records who stepped in with a record and publishing contract. âSongsâ¦.â is available available from retailers across the country (via www.crucialmusic.co.uk) and tracks will soon be available via iTunes
