soul @ temperance | Blue Rose Code

TICKETS ON SALE THURSDAY 5TH MARCH @ 12:00

“A set of almost religious intensity and sincerity. Wilson makes widescreen soul in

the spirit of Van Morrison, and was full of the holy fire of live performance.”

– The Times 2022

“Ravishingly beautiful, a burnished blaze of Caledonian Soul, muted jazz and

poetic recitation” – UNCUT 2023

***** “Jubilant, prayerful, compassionate, Caledonian soul maestro Ross Wilson’s

latest iteration of his Blue Rose Code band sees his songs bursting with heart”

– The Scotsman 2024

“An expert ensemble, led by Edinburgh singer-songwriter Ross Wilson, brought

the spontaneity and informality of an after-hours pub session to the Pavilion

Theatre. The effect was both stirring and meditative.” – The Spectator 2025

“One of the moments of this year’s festivals. Nothing short of sublime.”

– The Herald 2025

Following headline performances in ‘24 at Cambridge Folk Festival and Gate To

Southwell with his nine-piece Caley Soul band as well as a sold out bravura

show for Celtic Connections at Glasgow’s 1,400 cap Pavillion Theatre, Wilson

has spent the last few months reconnecting with his roots in live club

performance.

Touring solo, duo, or quartet in 2025, the shows have workshopped new songs

for 2026’s new Blue Rose Code studio album. The direction of travel seems to be

closer to the broad Scots Folk/Singer Songwriter style that brought him to work

with the likes of Karine Polwart, Beth Nielsen Chapman, Ewan McGregor, to write

for Steve Knightley, and open for heavyweights like Van Morrison, Deacon Blue

and the Proclaimers.

In any combination; solo, duo, quartet, Big Caley Soul Band, Blue Rose Code

simply has to be seen live
