The concert is headlined by Alabama Three, with Frightened Rabbit (acoustic set), Big Country and more appearing throughout the all day concert. Full details and line-up for the concert are at the bottom of this press release.

Dave says "Its a massive honour for me to play at the Barras. Ive been telling people that it has been a goal for me for a long time. A proper bucket list gig", and that he is "well aware that the circumstances that have lead to the concert arent the most pleasant but everyone involved is working towards an amazing day, raising much needed cash and support for the survivors and first responders".

Organisers quotes taken from Facebook event:

"In contribution to the effort which has seen funds raised for Clutha families and survivors, the all day event is a chance for people to enjoy music in another venue famed for its music. The gig is to reflect, reminisce and most importantly look forward to the future. It is a gig for people to celebrate everything that is good about Glasgow and The Clutha past and present, in order to help Glasgow move on and put the heartache of tragic events in November behind it. The event will be testament to the love for such venues in the city. As a people’s pub The Clutha is more than a bar, it is referred to as a “community”, a melting pot and it is in the hearts of many. We look forward to you joining us for the event Clutha – A Celebration"
