A young Lanark drummer is enjoying his first taste of the rock and roll star lifestyle in the United States.

Former Lanark Grammar School student George ‘Jorge’ Wilson and his band Single By Sunday are continuing their rise to transatlantic fame which began in 2017 when they not only took part in the Indie Week Festival in Canada but walked away with the ‘Best Emerging International Artist’ award from the event.

Headlining gigs back in Scotland in 2018 moved that emergence on a bit and now they are back across the Atlantic, cementing their growing fanbase there.
