The Kaiser Chiefs are coming to Montrose this summer as the latest addition to a star-studded town line-up.
The multi-award winning band has been announced as the third headline show in the Live at the Links series of concerts scheduled for the Angus town’s East Links in August.
They will hit the stage for the outdoor gig on Friday August 16.
Fronted by lead singer and former The Voice judge Ricky Wilson, the indie rock band first burst on to the world stage following the release of their debut album in 2005.
Their hits include Oh My God, Never Miss a Beat and number one smash, Ruby.
Their sixth record, Stay Together was released in 2016 and reached number four in the UK album chart.
Band frontman Ricky Wilson said: “We’re really excited to be playing in Montrose this August as we’ve heard great things about the East Links.
“We’ll put on an outstanding show and will pick out some of our best-known smash hits to perform, so come and join us, and let’s make it an unforgettable night.”
Ricky is joined in the band by guitarist Andrew ‘Whitey’ White, Nick ‘Peanut’ Baines on keyboards, bassist Simon Rix and drummer Vijay Mistry.
Claire Kidger, director of LCC Live, said: “We’re delighted to confirm Kaiser Chiefs to the line-up for Live at the Links in Montrose.
“They always put so much energy into producing a fantastic show, and we can’t wait to see them perform their latest and greatest hits.
“Live at the Links is shaping up to be an unmissable summer event with three of the UK’s most popular artists performing. We’d love you to come and join us.”
