Having toured America and Australia earlier in the year, Nutini has been on the European festival circuit this summer, and will return to Scotland for the show at the Royal Highland Showground next month. Last week, he performed at Suffolk’s Latitude Festival, along with The Kooks, Pulp, Metronomy, The Lightning Seeds, The Proclaimers and more.

The Ivor Novello winner and multiple BRIT Award nominee has also collected a remarkable 18 Platinum certifications in the UK alone.
