Five Hungry Joes – A pictorial archive of the Trashcan Sinatras. Legendary Scottish Band

Originally hailing from Orkney, off the north coast of Scotland, Kris Drever cut his teeth on the Edinburgh traditional music scene in the late 1990s. The son of Ivan Drever, (of Celtic rockers, Wolfstone), Kris has picked up plenty of praise for his work with ‘Britfolk supergroup’, Lau, and his wonderful solo debut ‘Black Water’ made him a deserving winner of the BBC Radio 2 Horizon Award in 2007.

Here, on his single ‘Poor Man’s Son’ he is joined by Eddi Reader, Frank Reader and Roddie Woomble (Idlewild), who all provide harmony vocals.

Track down his album – you don’t have to be a folkie to enjoy it.
