The Oates Field at Limbo
The Oates Field debuted at Limbo in November 2010 and they were so good, we immediately invited them back to headline in January 2011.
The Oates Field is Alan Oates (lead vocals, guitar and electronica), with Iona Marshall (backing vocals/bass) and Chris Lowrie (drums). Alan Oates – aka The Oates Field, Little Pebble and previously of Come In Tokyo – is a well known name on the Edinburgh music scene. He’s also a regular on the line up at The Fence Collective shows. Iona’s ethereal vocals (which caught the attention & admiration of Mike Scott of The Waterboys) complement The Oates Field’s raw energy. Chris Lowrie brings his hard-hitting-time-perfect talent to the sound.
