Formed in Glasgow in 1987 by the Gizzi brothers (Jools & Dante), Gun came to re-invent the rock 'n' roll genre. Their debut album, "Taking On The World", brought with it many successful singles (including "Better Days"/"Money") and their follow-up albums ("Gallus" and "Swagger") were equally as successful.

Fast-forward ten years to 2008, and Gun received an unexpected prize. Awarded with the prestigious Nordoff Robbins Tartan Clef award for "Scotland's Best Live Band", Gun decided that they would reform. With the Gizzi brothers at the helm, the boys enlisted fellow Glaswegians Paul McManus on drums and Jonny McGlynn on guitar to complete the new line up. With the band back in business, and a steam of live shows under their belt, the new look Gun was met with an overwhelming enthusiasm from both media and fans alike.
