SCOTTISH music legends the Bay City Rollers are to appear at the Rockore music festival this summer.

The Benarty Events Group made the announcement on its social media accounts this week with tickets selling quickly for the popular annual event which will take place at Lochore Meadows Country Park on August 24.

The chance to "journey back in time to those carefree days of the 70’s" is being offered with the band being led by legend Stuart "Woody" Wood who has brought together a powerful group of talented musicians who embody the same essence of the original band.

Backed by incredible musical resumes, organisers say the group has "taken what it means to be a Bay City Roller to heart" and said its excitement is infectious.

"The current Bay City Rollers are Ian Thomson on lead vocals and guitar, John McLaughlin on vocals and keys, Mikey Smith on bass guitar, Jamie McGrory on drums and Woody on guitar," added the post.

"The BCR song ‘Don’t Let The Music Die’ has echoed through time and the call is being answered. With Woody leading the charge, The Bay City Rollers bring their fresh energy and enthusiasm to the stage to breathe new life into the classic hits for fans around the world once again."
