Edinburgh Rocks Summer Garden Party (Feat. Dirty Vegas & Joey Negro), Princes Street Gardens, Sunday, 12.30-7.30pm, £25, 0131-225 6844
EDINBURGH Rocks is back with another massive party in Princes Street Gardens this Sunday.
On the bill for the seven hour bash are Dirty Vegas, Joey Negro, Arno, Studio Punks, Derek Martin, Gareth Sommerville, Mister Smith, Sioux City Boys Club and Donna Love.
Headline act Dirty Vegas are Grammy Award-winning British house trio Ben Harris, Paul Harris (no relation) and vocalist Steve Smith.
They are best known for their chart-breaking debut Days Go By. The hauntingly yet uplifting track achieved international success in 2001 sealing their future in an otherwise impossible US market.
Ahead of the gig, Ben Harris enthuses, “We have always loved playing in Scotland. The crowds are great and so into the music that we feed off them.
“We are buzzing about playing The Gardens... right below Edinburgh Castle, it’s going to be amazing.”
No stranger to Edinburgh either is co-headliner DJ Joey Negro (aka Dave Lee), the godfather of UK house and disco.
“It’s always nice to be playing during the summer, lets hope it’s sunny,” he laughs.
“I always enjoy visiting Edinburgh and will be armed with some great music to rock the crowd.”
Words: GRANT PATERSON
