When people think of traditional Scottish Music, they usually imagine the sound of pipes, accordions and fiddles playing reels and soulful laments. While this is still true, it's not the only music being performed by Scottish musicians today.
Now there is the sound of FOURGOODMEN. The band features two musicians who were the Heart of Simple Minds sound, Derek Forbes and Mick MacNeil and H2O frontman Ian Donaldson

Simple Minds, top-selling international act with many 1 hits around the world and over 43 Million records sold. Now, in the 21st Century, Derek, Mick and Ian have joined together to perform the hit songs that became the soundtrack for the lives of a generation.

In addition to brand new songs such as ''Kisscool'' and ''Heart of Wonder'', experience "Don't You Forget About Me", ''Alive and Kicking'', ''Waterfront", "Love Song", ''Dream to Sleep'', "Someone Somewhere in Summertime" and many more!

In between shows, FOURGOODMEN are in the studio recording further new songs for an album that will be available in 2008.

Stay tuned for more new music and live shows from FOURGOODMEN!
