Two of the most exciting Scottish bands of recent years feature on the third Tune Up Tour 2009. The headlining act for the tour, Frightened Rabbit have been making waves globally over the last two years with memorable tours of the US and further afield.Joining them on the Dundee, Inverness and Stirling dates will be Chemikal Underground’s Phantom Band, whose Checkmate Savage album from earlier this year was met with critical acclaim.

We chatted to Scott Hutchison, founder, songwriter, vocalist and lead guitarist with Frightened Rabbit; and Phantom Band’s vocalist, Rick Anthony about the tour which kicks off on Friday 27 November in Fort William. Other acts who will be in support on different dates of the tour are The Moth and The Mirror and As Tall As Lions.
