GERARD M BURNS
Artist musician and songwriter Gerard M Burns is best known perhaps for his large scale paintings and portraits. He has however maintained a strong connection to his music throughout a career which stretches back to the 1980s, when he was the front man with the band ‘Valerie and the week of wonders’. At that time they toured with and supported bands like the ‘The Icicle works’, and ‘Simple Minds’, and as a solo musician ‘Hue and Cry’ and the legendary  ‘Lyall Lovat’ to name but a few

Asked about his music Burns will say he is primarily a songwriter, and that if he has any strength as a musician that’s where it lies. His writing however covers an incredibly wide range of different genres, ranging from blues and soul, to Alt Americana, indie rock and beyond.

He is currently engaged in a collaborative project with a number of local musicians in ‘Studio 1790’, ana small recording Studio on the outskirts of Cumbernauld, and his first solo album ‘Everybody’ due to be released on ‘Last Night From Glasgow’ at the end of this year.
