Scottish singer songwriter JJ Gilmour first tasted success as the joint front man with Scottish band The Silencers. The band toured extensively enjoying great success across Europe.

After leaving the band, JJ secured himself a solo deal with the help of golfing star Ian Woosnam and is now firmly established as a solo artist with 5 studio albums under his belt and now in 2025 his 25 plus years work as solo artist has been celebrated with the release of his compilation album “The Evolution of JJ Gilmour”.

JJ visits Nashville Tennessee in early 2026 to record his 6th solo album and will be working with some of Nashville’s finest musician under the watchful eye of producer Chas Sandford who previously has produced Stevie Nicks, Willie Nelson and John Waite to name but three.

JJ has also enjoyed success with his hit musical Dancing Shoes, based on the life of footballer George Best and has written the music for the musical The Titanic Boys which played to over 40,000 people.

Music aside, JJ is an outspoken advocate for mental health.
