The Scottish rockers - Simon Neil, James Johnstone and Ben Johnston - will headline Edinburgh's Hogmanay Concert in the Gardens on New Year's Eve (31.12.15) and have vowed to make a ''musical'' comeback in 2016.

They said in a statement: ''We are so happy to come out of musical hibernation to kick off 2016 with the show on Hogmanay. We want to rock off the cobwebs and prepare for the year of da biff! Nothing can compete with Edinburgh's celebrations and we hope to make it a special night for everyone!''

The 'Many of Horror' hitmakers headlined Edinburgh's Hogmanay event in 2010 and five years on they will be bringing their explosive live show to their home country for what promises to be an unforgettable night to welcome in 2016.

This will be the band's one and only UK performance of 2015 and will be the stage from which they will kick off 2016 and what is being lined up to be a huge year for them.

Tickets for Edinburgh's Hogmanay Concert in the Gardens will go on general sale from 10.00am on Friday 25 September at www.edinburghshogmanay.com.
