Scottish group cover this HUGE hit during TRNSMT set
Nathan Evans and The Saint Phnx Band took to the main stage on the last day of Scotland's biggest festival to perform an incredibly crowd-pleasing set. (Image: Picture credit: Lesley Martin/PA Wire) The group covered Take Me Home, Country Roads, which was originally sung by John Denver and featured on his 1971 album, Poems, Prayers and Promises. After the tune - which the whole audience got involved in - Nathan flashed a content smile before saying, "that was absolutely incredible, thank you." But that wasn't the only cover the band had up their sleeves. They also did their own rendition of Wagon Wheel, which was co-written by Bob Dylan and Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show. After performing the song, a here we f****** go chant broke out among the crowd. (Image: Picture credit: Lesley Martin/PA Wire) It is safe to say that the group knew exactly what they were doing when curating their set. It was the perfect playlist for a summer festival in Glasgow. Despite the warm weather, Nathan had the crowd dancing and jumping about for the majority of the set, especially when they sung their big hit Arabella. Before playing it, Nathan thanked the crowd for their incredible response to the song since its release a few weeks ago. It peaked at number 89 on the Official Singles Chart. (Image: Picture credit: Lesley Martin/PA Wire) Perhaps the most delightful moment of the set was watching the boys' outpouring of love for Scotland. Nathan led a no Scotland no party chant twice throughout the set and before singing Home, he declared: "Scotland for us is our country, it's our place." The group even brought a bagpiper on stage during the song. (Image: Picture credit: Lesley Martin/PA Wire) Before finishing their set with Wellerman (Sea shanty) - the tune which made Nathan go viral on TikTok a few years ago - the boys announced to the crowd that they would be performing at the OVO Hydro later this year. We reported earlier today that the gig - which will be their biggest headline show yet - will take place on October 25. Pre-sale opens on Wednesday, July 16 at 10am and general sale will go live on July 18 at 10am.

Nathan Evans announced Glasgow Hydro show at TRNSMT 2025
Nathan Evans and his crowd-pleasing collaboration with fellow Scots The Saint Phnx Band, announced their biggest headline show yet, at Glasgow's OVO Hydro arena on 25th October. Nathan revealed the news on stage in front of a massive crowd at TRNSMT Festival today.

'Everything these days is about social media, so there's something special about telling folk about it live during a show, especially in the beautiful sunshine.' The huge news follows the release of rollicking folk-pop banger Arabella, Nathan's first new single since the success of his sophomore album 1994, and the first to formalise his alchemic relationship with Saint Phnx – aka Alan and Stevie Jukes - as a collaborative single. It's the logical conclusion of a songwriting partnership which hit a vein of gold in songs like Heather on the Hill, Highland Girl and Flowers In The Water, melding Nathan's love of folk and trad music with a rhythmic and dynamic pop sensibility which took the album to Number 1 in the Scottish charts. Speaking about forming the group with them, Nathan said: 'Stevie and Alan have been a massive part of my journey since the beginning.' 'We wrote 'Told You So', my first single after Wellerman, together and we're more like brothers now. "Two years ago I asked them to come on tour with me and it's just grown arms and legs from there. "So now we're officially Nathan Evans and the Saint Phnx band and I get to travel the world making music with my best mates. "You can't ask for better than that.' Live, the combination is a 'potent force', creating a party atmosphere with a literal pub onstage, in ever-larger venues across the UK and Europe. Two shows at Glasgow's Barrowland Ballroom last year sold out as soon as they went on sale.. Tickets are priced between £27.50 and £55. Presale opens on Wednesday 16th July at 10am and fans can sign up here by Tuesday 15th at 10pm. General sale opens Friday 18th July at 10am here.
