Notes & Rhymes

The Proclaimers

High-energy Scottish folk rock meeting Nashville soul. Thick harmonies, biting political wit, and anthemic melodies built for long drives and loud rooms.

A resilient blend of working-class defiance and hard-won melodic optimism.

Moments Worth Listening For
The sudden, soaring harmonic lift in the chorus of Love Can Move Mountains that feels like a physical push.
The biting, rhythmic delivery of the verses in Free Market where the political frustration becomes danceable.
The stripped-back, vulnerable opening of Sing All Our Cares Away before the full band kicks in.
