Finally managed to wind down from last week. Both myself and Davey (and a plethora of other casualties from rehearsals) were getting over a brutal cold so it was all a bit of a blur tbf 🤦🏻‍♂️ 😂

Any and all feedback from everyone is mega appreciated, we’re in the midst of trawling footage of the show and THERE’S TONS!

Any favourite moments / songs / sassy poses appreciated - it’ll help us massively with editing the footage, as well as planning anything in the future ❤️

Massive love and French kisses on your lips 💋

Last night was incredible. And without everyone supporting the show it genuinely couldn’t have happened.

To have everyone we had on that stage last night still blows my tiny mind. All of a sudden I’m surrounded by musicians I admire not only for their incredible talent, but for their wonderful personalities as well. It’s not often I’m lost for words but I genuinely cannot describe how much it means to me to be able to do this and have the people around me that I do.

My phones been going like a cider drinkers ar****le so apologies as well if I haven’t responded to anyone yet.

I fu***ng love you, and can’t thank you all enough for this. You’re all absolutely amazing ❤️

What a night 👊⚡️Thanks to everyone for coming along ❤️

Love this ❤️

So. Your boy will be joining the team as one of our special guests for The Adam Smith and double bill this weekend.

I’ve known Dov since forever tbh, and he’s always been as much of a gentleman as he is a mayhem instigator. It’s actually been a total pleasure watching him go from strength to strength, and personally I’m really proud of and the team at getting behind him, and giving him the push to give him a home for his passions. And quite rightly so 🎸⚡️

To many he’ll need absolutely no introduction at all, and to any others please go check him out. He’s been collaborating with The Views very own and his latest single is absolutely outstanding. Take a bow son 👊⚡️

Tickets in bio or here: https://www.onfife.com/event/mike-clerk-davey-horne-double-bill-aj23/

Always a great time with oor Dov. And to have everyone we have collaborate for this event is really special. I’m a very lucky loddie indeed ❤️

⚡️Guest # 3… 👀

Kapow! 👊💥

The insanely angelic voiced will be joining the list of guests with myself and at the show on Sat 25th May.

Niamh genuinely has one of the best voices in the country (Elton John is a fan) and is another one of those rare individuals where music just seems to be the main stay of her genetic makeup. She was originally pinned down and threatened to join both myself and Davey as a guest, but she’s honestly just so good we’ve decided to fling her in the back of a van and drive around fife playing Thin Lizzy classic “The Boys are Back in Town” on repeat until she agreed to open the show herself.

Can’t believe it worked, but here we are. What an absolute legend of a lassie ⚡️

You should check her stuff out, but just don’t do it before you listen to any of mine, as it’ll make my work sound absolutely brutal.

Shaping up well to be some night, am shakin in ma wee boots already waiting for it ❤️

Release day for oor ⚡️⚡️

I’ll tell you something, I’ve known Dovv since he was a young lad, and he’s ALWAYS been a proper gentleman. Like he was born for an earlier era where politeness and courtesy comes before ego. He’s been through a fair wee bit here and there, and has still made the time to be supportive of myself as well as others around him.

He’s got some team behind him now and deservedly so, it’s been a personal pleasure of mine to see him more and more self assured and driven as the last few years have passed, and he’s gonna be a force to be reckoned with. Some boy ❤️

Runaway is OUT NOW on all major music platforms. Co written by s frontslice .

Give it a whirl, and if you fancy singing along to it with me from the back benches covered in Tennents lager, get along to the Windsor in kdy tonight. I’ll be there with bells on. 👊⚡️

Go on son ❤️

Still can’t get over how fu**in outrageous UFC 300 was. Unreal. I’ve a feeling the guy in the gym today walking circles around the benches and stopping for some rounds of shadow boxing at the dumbell rack feels the same.

Humans are brilliant.

SHOW REVEAL #2 👀 ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Well after the news of a VERY surreal time down London at the o2, I’ve got some further absolutely epic news about the Kirkcaldy double bill with Davey Horne at The Adam Smith Theatre.

National treasure Big Country guitarist, (and one of the nicest guys in rock and roll) Jamie Watson will be our second special guest performer, alongside Happy Mondays / Blitz Vega’s KAV .

This show is fast shaping up to be amazing for the town, having these guys involved with this is just as bewildering to me as it is special.

World renowned rock and rollers that have a special place in my heart for being the amazing humans they are, and a special place already cemented in history for the amazing work they’ve done and continue to do.

Unbelievable 🤯

Tickets here (or in bio) : https://www.onfife.com/event/mike-clerk-davey-horne-double-bill-aj23/

Still more to come as well…. Mental ⚡️❤️❤️

11/04/2024

So last night was pretty mental. Got asked to guest on guitar for a track by the legendary Big Country at the o2 in London. 🎸 Had such a great time catching up with everyone, proper patter for days. I’ll hopefully find some actual footage of it to post later 😂 👀

National Treasure of a band, and still can’t get my head around the fact that it actually happened. Massive love to Jamie Watson for always being the soundest guy anyone could ever meet. And huge thanks to everyone in the band for putting up with my carry on.

Show was amazing, currently en route home with a banger of a sore head. Which turns out is in dire need of a haircut 🤪

10/04/2024

Just had one of the most surreal experiences ever that’ll stay with me forever.

Fu**in wild man.
