Big Country
Big country est un groupe de rock écossais aux influences celtiques qui a connu le succès avec l'album "The crossing" sorti en 1983 et leur titre In a big country. Les cornemuses sont ici remplacées par les guitares, ce qui donnent à tous leurs titres un caractère particulier. Leur deuxième album "Steeltown" entrera directement 1 er dans les charts anglais. Six autres albums suivront jusqu'en 1999 et une tournée d'adieu aura lieu en 2000. Le suicide en décembre 2001 de Stuart Adamson, leader du groupe, semblait mettre une fin définitive à l'histoire de Big Country. Mais, en 2007, une série de concerts dans une formation à 3, suivie d'un album live ("Twenty-Five Live") relance l'histoire du groupe. Un album studio serait en préparation pour 2008.
