The Proclaimers were an acoustic duo out of Scotland during the folk revival of
the late 1980s.
This Is The Story (Chrysalis, 1987) is a timid collection of
melodic ditties in a style sometimes reminiscent of Merseybeat
(Throw The R Away) and sometimes inspired by country-rock
(Letter From America).
They fully adopted the folk-rock idiom with
Sunshine On Leith (Chrysalis, 1988), that, years later, yielded the
hit I'm Gonna Be 500 Miles.
Fame brought a new album,
Hit The Highway (Chrysalis, 1994),
that expanded the Everly Brothers personas with touches of
soul and rockabilly (much like the pub-rock of twenty years before).
There's A Touch is the first single from
Persevere (Nettwerk, 2001).
The (mostly polemic) songs on Life With You (2008) were simply tedious, proving they were little more than a
"one-hit wonder".
