Live at Chelsea - The Proclaimers

A large outdoor concert at dusk takes place in front of a historic building with a central clock tower. A covered stage is lit with purple and white lights as a band performs, while a large crowd fills the foreground, watching the show against the warmly illuminated brick façade.

Strikingly individual, twin brothers Craig and Charlie Reid emerged 38 years ago with their debut album This Is The Story and Top 3 single ‘Letter from America’. Since then their enduring appeal across generations has have over the years seen them enjoy huge success across the globe.

The Proclaimers songs are timeless, capturing a gamut of human emotions, written with poignancy, emotional honesty, political fire and wit. Their hit songs, such as ‘Sunshine on Leith’, ‘I’m On My Way’, and ‘Let’s Get Married’ feature at weddings, funerals and everything in-between.  

There is of course one song – ‘(I'm Gonna Be) 500 Miles’ - an early celebration of falling head over heels in love that is known the world over and has become a staggering global anthem.  

The Proclaimers have carved out a niche for themselves in the netherworld where pop, folk, new wave and punk collide. In the process, they have enjoyed Gold and Platinum singles and albums in UK, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

Two middle-aged men stand against a bright green background, both wearing glasses. One wears a short-sleeved rust-coloured polo shirt and clasps his hands, while the other stands slightly behind in a grey long-sleeved top. Both look off to the side with thoughtful, slightly serious expressions.
