About this concert
We’re buzzing to bring our acoustic show to The Old Schoolhouse, Abington on Saturday 29 November 2025. If you’ve never seen us before, expect close harmonies, songs with heart, and the stories that shaped them—up close in one of the most intimate rooms around.
This is RAINTOWN stripped back: vocals, guitar, bouzouki, fiddle, percussion, and plenty of space for the songs to breathe. We’ll play originals from across our albums, re-imagine a few tracks just for this room, and throw in a couple of hand-picked covers from artists who inspired us. No big production—just the music, the moments, and you.
Why this night?
An acoustic, song-first set designed for a listening room.
Stories behind the songs—how they were written, where they came from, and where they took us.
A chance to hear new arrangements - maybe even brand new material - you won’t get anywhere else.
An intimate venue with limited capacity, so every seat feels front-row.
We’re proud of the journey that brought us here—first Scottish act to play Nashville’s CMA Fest, 16 awards in four years, and shows across in the USA, Canada, the UK and Europe, and we cannot wait to share this night with you: close, honest, and bare.

The entire show was excellent including the two solo support acts.
The staff were very helpful and minimises delays when getting served at the bar and also entering the premises.
Sound was brilliant for all the acts and I'm back again for another two gigs and "A Play, Pie and a Pint" over the next four weeks.
Raintown were very good and though I hadn't heard much of their music beforehand I enjoyed the show and will go and see them again.
All in, a great experience and I'm glad I'm getting back into enjoying music and the arts again especially in Oran Mor.

Raintown Biography
"If This Was a Love Song,' a number with so much harmony, melody and county pop appeal that if it had been written and performed by a Nashville act it would never be off US country and mainstream pop radio."
Ross Muir - fabricationshq.com
16 awards in just 5 years, two critically acclaimed albums and a new one on the way, Glasgow-based, Raintown delivers an attention-grabbing mix of Scottish rock and Contemporary Country that is unashamedly forward-thinking. Their intensely charismatic live performances are imbued with a spirit and energy that make their sound accessible to all music lovers.
“Country music in the UK has come of age in the last year and Raintown are front-and-centre in that surge. The new album is simply superb.”
John Collins - Presenter, Bauer City Network 2
With a live reputation that has continued to grow with performances that included, a successful UK tour, Country2Country at London's O2 Arena, Party at the Palace Music Festival, Belladrum Music Festival, supporting Deacon Blue at Montorse Music Festival, Runrig at the iconic Shepherd’s Bush Empire and American, Josh Kelley in Glasgow. They were also the first Scottish act ever to be asked to perform at the CMA Fest in Nashville, USA.
“Go and see one of their dynamic live performances and get on the Raintown bandwagon because the best is yet to come”
Country Music People.
Their sophomore release, ‘WRITING ON THE WALL’ continued their impressive development. It contains a polished mix of bright, up-tempo guitar-led Americana, Country pop-rock all arranged around superb harmonies and the duo’s trade mark back and forth vocals. It has gained praise from fans and critics alike including five star review’s from both ‘Country Music People’ - who said, “every single track has something remarkable about it” - and Maverick Magazine which commented, “The record is truly excellent.”
“It is very,very good.”
Bob Harris – Radio2
Paul Bain and Claire McArthur-Bain, are more than just a love story; they fuse their passion for Country Music with their eclectic musical influences and continue the tradition of exciting new music to emerge from Glasgow. Their electrifying live performances and sensational new music have elevated this impressive duo to new heights and cemented their place as one of the UK’s leading ‘new breed’ of Country crossover acts.
“Everyone’s talking about Raintown.”
