Big Country

Big Country, the renowned Scottish alternative rock band, is set to perform live at Sydney's Metro Theatre on 10 October 2025. Known for their distinctive guitar sound that evokes traditional Scottish and Celtic music, Big Country has been captivating audiences since their formation in Dunfermline, Scotland in 1981. The band gained international fame in the 1980s with their debut album 'The Crossing,' featuring popular tracks like 'Fields Of Fire' and 'In A Big Country.' Their music, characterized by widescreen guitar melodies and patriotic themes, earned them three Grammy nominations.

Throughout the decade, they continued their success with albums like 'Steeltown' and 'The Seer,' both achieving critical and commercial acclaim. Notably, they performed at iconic events such as Live Aid in 1985. Despite the tragic passing of frontman Stuart Adamson in 2001, Big Country's legacy persists, and their music continues to influence new generations. The Sydney concert promises to be a memorable experience, highlighting the band's anthemic sound in the intimate setting of the Metro Theatre.
