SCOTTISH SEX PISTOLS Press Release / Bio:
Never Mind The Trossachs here’s The SCOTTISH SEX PISTOLS! They were given the approval of the original band when Keith and John Lydon teamed up some years ago, under John's instruction they played on Richard Branson’s paddle steamer for the opening of Parliament and the launch of the Sex Pistols compilation album ‘Kiss This’.
Now fresh from their recent sold out 100 Club show in London and from playing to a ‘captive’ audience at Scotland’s notorious Barlinnie Prison. The band return for 4 more captivating shows in Scotland with a new line up!
The Scottish Sex Pistols have included members of The Professionals, The Alarm and The Members.
The current line up is fronted by Johnny McRotten aka actor Keith Warwick of ‘My Parents Are Aliens’ TV fame, his onstage antics, banter and antagonistic Lydon-isms are a joy to behold!
Bryan Tolland aka Glen McMattlock on bass was in Del Amitri, with whom he has recorded & performed worldwide. He has also played in UK chart-toppers The Bluebells.
Joe Whyte aka Steve McJones on Guitar is also in Jericho Hill, the world’s greatest Johnny Cash tribute! (He said modestly!) and ex-Reaction, God-Fearing atheist!
Paul Fernon aka Paul McCook on drums enjoys hitting things and is a keen exponent in the art of the understatement. He too has played everywhere in various bands.
