Colin Clyne is an award winning Scottish singer/songwriter (Country, Folk Rock, and Americana). Having spent 10 years in California, Clyne is now back in Scotland blazing a trail in the UK music scene. He left San Diego as a 2 time winner of ‘The Best Acoustic Act’ at the prestigious San Diego Music Awards. In the US, NBC featured Colin in a top 12 list of best singer songwriters associated with San Diego in amongst, Tom Waits, Jewel, and the late Jim Croce.

In addition to his previous album, "Doricana", "The Never Ending Pageant" was produced by Grammy Award Winning Engineer, Alan Sanderson, (The Stones, Elton John, Ryan Adams, Burt Bacharach). 'Pageant' reached #6 on the iTunes Country album charts and his song "Top of the Mountain' was a Finalist in the 2014 UK Songwriting contest. STV (Scottish TV) hailed Colin as a "...rising star of Scotland..." with 'The Sun' newspaper describing his latest offering as '...a glorious selection of folk and county rock numbers...' akin to Ryan Adams or Bruce Springsteen.

Clyne has become a seasoned road vet, impressing crowds at venues ranging from Hollywood’s infamous Viper Room, to Scotland’s Tartan Heart Festival (Belladrum) and all manner of stages in between. Clyne appeared at the 2012 Stonehaven Hogmany Party in Scotland, where he opened the stage for International touring band The Red Hot Chilli Pipers in front of 6,000 party goers.
