THE FUN LOVIN’ CRIME WRITERS

VAL McDERMID, CHRIS BROOKMYRE, MARK BILLINGHAM
LUCA VESTE, DOUG JOHNSTONE, STUART NEVILLE

Having temporarily put down their pens and picked up guitars, this crime-writing super-group happily murder much-loved songs by The Clash, Elvis Costello, Hank Williams, The Beatles, Talking Heads, The Jam, Johnny Cash and many others who are currently considering legal action. They’ve played roof-raising shows at festivals across the UK as well as in Iceland and Canada and in 2019 and 2024 they performed at the Glastonbury Festival.

If toe-tapping tales of blood and badness are your thing, you cannot afford to miss this amazing band of best-sellers.

Murder on the dancefloor is guaranteed…
