Trotwood Events are super-duper excited to announce yet another instalment of our ongoing Glasgow-London-Cultural-Exchange-Programme. It’s an absolute honour to welcome the amazing James Kirk and Warren McIntyre to the Betsey for an afternoon show on Sunday 15th February 2025.

James Kirk is a founding member of Glaswegian indie legends Orange Juice and his jangly, melodic guitar riffs were integral to the “Sound Of Young Scotland”, which in turn gave birth to indie music as we know it and inspired countless guitar players. He also wrote their jangletastic song Felicity. A few months ago his old bandmate Edwyn Collins asked him, alongside original Orange Juice drummer Steven Daly, to join him for a sorta OJ reunion on his farewell shows in Glasgow and London…and they sounded fabulous!

James has recently joined forced with Warren McIntyre of melodic pop folk-rockers Starry Skies, after he was asked to play Glasgow Goes Pop (an inspired indie fest held in Glasgow every year curated and organised by Tita and Kenji) in 2022.
They have become a prolific songwriting duo with their 1s single, limited edition double AA side Miss Green Tea and Costa del Culzean released (GGP-001 vinyl) in the Summer of 2025 to coincide with Glasgow Goes Pops 4th outing. An album is in the post!

On stage they are joined by Hal on bass and Michael (V-Twin/1990s) on drums.

Very special guests to be announced.

This gig will be happening in the main bar of the Betsey Trotwood.
