Deacon Blue are making a return to the MoFest stage to celebrate the festival’s tenth anniversary.
The band will headline the festival, opening the weekend of live music with an outdoor show on the East Links, Montrose on Friday, May 26. Next year Deacon Blue will celebrate 30 years since the release of Raintown. They previously headlined the festival back in 2009.
Dundonian Ricky Ross, lead singer of the group, said: “We’re having great fun touring right now, and are really looking forward to returning to MoFest next year. We’re going to make it a big show and with a lot of favourites, old and new.
“Don’t expect to go home too early!”
Fellow singer Lorraine McIntosh, said: “We remember our show at MoFest 2009 with great fondness. We’re really excited to be heading back to Montrose and being part of its special tenth anniversary celebrations. We promise a great show and hope to see lots of our fans there.”
The Beach Boys were previously revealed to play the festival, which will celebrate its 10th anniversary next year.
