Ricky Ross

Ricky Ross, songwriter and lead singer for Deacon Blue, follows the release of 2020’s City Of Love, the band’s most successful album in 25 years, with a solo album and tour, Short Stories Vol. 2, alongside his autobiography, Walking Back Home.

In his memoir, Ross revisits his formative years growing up in Dundee, his early forays into music and the beginning, extraordinary success, fall-out, and re-emergence of Deacon Blue. Ross writes movingly and with great wit about the people and places that have meant the most to him, as well as his relationship with faith, politics, and the ever-changing challenges of being a musician.

The album and book will be supported by a tour with Ricky at the piano, playing beautiful venues around the country, presenting songs from across his entire career and sharing stories from his autobiography.
