Ray Harris plus special guests at Cottiers
31 July, 2026, 8 p.m.
Ray Harris returns to the stage at Cottiers for a one-night performance of his fifth studio album Prelude.
Mastered at Abbey Road Studios, Prelude marks a return to expansive arrangements and cinematic songwriting — piano-led, melodic and rich in atmosphere. Joined by an 8-piece ensemble, Harris will perform the album in full, alongside selected works from his previous releases.
Drawing on the depth of classic songwriting and the feel of 1970s records, Harris has developed a distinguished retro sound shaped by a contemporary approach. His writing is defined by restraint, melody and emotional clarity.
Over the course of his career, Harris has shared stages with James Brown, Sister Sledge, Chic & Nile Rodgers and Average White Band. His music has also been officially released in Japan, Indonesia and South Korea.
An intimate and immersive live performance.
Doors at 7.30pm
Cottiers, 93 – 95 Hynddland Street, Glasgow G11 5 PU
