Gerry Cinnamon played two homecoming dates at Hampden Park Stadium in Glasgow last week.

The Scottish phenomenon closed his UK summer dates in style with a duo of gigs at the country's national football stadium to a crowd of 100,000 fans.

Cinnamon's mammoth dates at the stadium didn't just mark long awaited landmark shows, but saw the singer-songwriter make history as he became the first independent act and the first Scot to sell out multiple nights at the stadium.

He also offered up a taste of new music, playing unreleased track Sacred and a stunning tribute to his hero Billy Connolly with his own rendition of I Wish I Was in Glasgow.
