George Best "Dancing Shoes" story click here

Friends and fellow countrymen/women, above is a link to the press story printed in todays Scottish Sunday mail. There are 1 or 2 little mistakes in there but I thought my old friend Billy Sloan did a nice job on it. One note I need to mention is that although we have been speaking to Sinead O'Connor about singing "Dancing Shoes"( which Sinead really likes) that in fact isn't confirmed yet, I just want to make that clear.

Remember folks to go to the tour dates page to see information on my February shows in Scotland and Ireland.

Luv luv luv

Monday 20th December 2009

Hello my dear friends. After a good old rest I have finally decided to come back to life again. My mothers’ passing has taken its toll on me but its time to get back on the horse again. Thank you for all your personal messages on Facebook and Myspace. I know most of you will know that I have dates in February and March in Scotland, but now I'm also pleased to tell you that I'll play in Belfast in February too as part of the Belfast/Nashville festival, venue and date TBC. I’m trying also by the end of the year 2010 to have a new album out? Though I'm not sure how adventurous that is as I’m going to be crazy busy next year with “Dancing Shoes” the George Best musical which has it’s world premier at the end of July at The Opera House in Mr Best’s hometown Belfast. But really the reason for writing was to wish all my friends and fans a Merry Christmas and a whole lotta good luck for 2010. Luv Luv Luv Your P.A.L JJ X X X

I'd personally like to thank everyone for their kind words of support over my recent tough two weeks. On a brighter note I hope you can all come along to one or two of my up and coming concerts taking place in Scotland at the end of this month and the beginning of next in (Gourock, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Coatbridge) It would have been my mothers 69th Birthday today, I can tell you the homecoming concert in Coatbridge will not be the same without her.

Hello my friends

Hope you are all well and enjoying our fantastic Indian summer, hurricanes, floods, and the general lack of blue skies " the joys" I forgot that living back in Ireland or Scotchland also meant pishing down pretty much everyday, but hey worse things happen at sea. I just wanted to let everyone know that as well as being able to buy my albums here from my website that both studio albums 1 and 2 are now available on itunes to download. The live album will be available there soon too.

New gigs will be posted shortly, I am talking to folks in liverpool to do a small show there, also Ireland and of course bonnie Scotchland. So keep poppin by and I'll have news for you very soon. Till then, stay safe

Hello everyone

I just wanted to say thank you for all your support during the last gigs, they were great. I am now heading back to Ireland to start work on the musical again and also to work on some new songs for album number 3. As "The Boy who didn't fall" has been so well received I can't wait to get into the studio and record another, I think we have most of the material now for the new album so I am hoping early next year we can start recording and have it out for an Easter release. I will also be looking into some more live dates and hope that very soon we can add France and England to our rosta. I did mention that I am looking into playing at peoples homes/private shows, so If you think you can invite 50 or more people to a private concert then email me info@jjgilmour.com and we can discuss it.

Best for now,

Luv Luv Luv

Tuesday 28th July 2009

Well folks we've had a few good little concerts over the last few days including a very interesting evening last night in The Four Mary's Linlithgow which was set up and sold privately by a fan Malky (Thank's for a top evening Malky) Thanks also to Kevin and Sue for working the Aviemore gig so hard, it was another special night. Big thanks also to Dave for the lovely Lathones gig and to Iain for the great night in the Griffin. What a good time we had at all of the shows. Sadly we've had to Cancel the Wishaw show due to poor ticket sales, we do try to bring our merry band to new towns to play but if you kind folks don't buy the tickets we can't come, (maybe next time Wishaw?) Anyhoo I'll write again soon and until till then TAKE CARE

luv luv luv JJ xx
