Acoustic Music at Montrose Playhouse kick off our Autumn season with a bang, when we welcome the Massy Ferguson band from Seattle, Washington State, U.S.A., as part of their U.K. Tour.
For more than a dozen years, Massy Ferguson have proudly planted their boots on both sides of the Country- Rock divide, carving out their own brand of amplified Americana. From their base in Seattle, they have become international torchbearers for a sound, which is distinctly American, with a touring history, which spans nine different countries. Their sound has been described as Rock & Roll roots, or bar-band twang, served with raw guitar-driven bang.
The touring band will be Ethan Anderson, on bass and lead vocals, Adam Monda, on guitar and vocals, Fred Slater, on kevboards, with drummer Alfonso Luna. The tour will promote their seventh Album, entitled ” You Can’t Tell Me I’m Not What I User To Be.” This is their cinematic version of rootsy American music, filled with vintage tones, analog production and lush instrumentation.
Admission is £15, payable in cash at the door, or tickets can be purchased beforehand by emailing brucekenneth130@gmail.com.

Singer Songwriter, Alice Faye, from Glasgow, is fast becoming one of Scotland’s most distinctive new voices, crafting songs, which balance cinematic drama with intimate confessional storytelling. Accompanying herself on guitar and keyboards, together with Lewis Doherty, on guitar and backing vocals, she appears at Montrose Playhouse as part of a short Scottish September tour.
Fresh from winning the BBC Introducing Award for 2026, after being voted ” The Sound of Young Scotland ” at the Scottish Album of the Year Awards for 2025, Alice Faye continues to build momentum as she prepares for the release of her debut Album, entitled ” Vaudevillain”.
Blending Sixties Folk, Seventies Pop and classic Country with a theatrical chanson-inspired flair, the music of Alice Faye feels both timeless and vividly modern. Rich piano arrangements, sharp lyrical wit and a striking expressive vocal style sit at the heart of her work.
Admission is £14, payable in cash at the door, or tickets can be purchased beforehand by emailing brucekenneth130@gmail.com.
