Aberdeen singer-songwriter Adam Thom and folk trio Alma have come together for a co-headline run, with an Edinburgh<\/a> gig among the locations announced.<\/p>\n

Alma are a Glasgow-based trio formed by Anna Cassidy, Ellyn Oliver and Marine Rolink, who came together in late 2024 and made their debut performance at Celtic Connections 2025.<\/p>\n

Alma have since gone on to release debut single Magpie, which led to BBC Radio Scotland attention, interviews and regular airplay.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Their co-headliner for the run, Adam Thom, is a singer originally from Aberdeen but now also based in Glasgow.<\/p>\n

His writing is rooted in folk and Americana traditions, with his second EP Through the Candle Smoke and Burning Sage, released last December, receicing strong praise from Americana UK.<\/p>\n

The two acts have announced a performance at Leith Depot on 9 July, with doors opening at 7pm and a slated start time of 7:30pm.<\/p>\n

Adam Thom and Alma come together for a co-headline run built around contemporary folk, Americana, and harmony-led songwriting. Each act performs a full set, making for a relaxed, song-focused evening.<\/p>\n
