The River Detectives

The River Detectives were a folk rock duo from Craigneuk in Motherwell, Scotland. The duo, formed in 1985, comprised Sam Corry (vocals, guitar, harmonica) and Dan O'Neil (vocals, guitar, drums). The River Detectives have released three albums to date and had a UK Top 40 hit with their song, "Chains".
==History==
The band played their first show at Jack Daniel's Pub in Motherwell on 18 August 1986. They quickly built a following at their acoustic and electric shows. In 1988 the band toured extensively in Scotland and attracted the interest of the Warner Bros. Records label, becoming the first Scottish band to sign for them in over a decade. Shortly afterwards, the duo moved to Glasgow to pen the songs for their debut album, ''Saturday Night Sunday Morning''. The album gathered momentum worldwide and gained a silver disk for UK sales, spawning a Top 40 hit with "Chains". In 1990, Glasgow hosted The Big Day to celebrate the 'City Of Culture' status. The River Detectives were one of the headline bands at The Riverside that day.
The band recruited Van Morrison's backing group for the follow-up album, ''Elvis Has Left The Building'', released in 1992. The album's title is a reference to the state of music at the time of the record's release when computer technology and the rise of the DJ were rampant and conventional performers were becoming peripheral. After the album's release, the band relocated to Ireland, where they wrote and toured extensively and guested on a number of records. By 1996 the band had hit a crossroads when they received the news that the record had produced two Top 10 singles in South Africa. After playing the Splashy Fen festival in the Natal Province, the band received further invitations to tour in the country and relocated to Durban for a year before returning to the UK in 2000 to take a break.
The duo reunited when Corry asked O'Neil for assistance in finishing lyrics to a new song, "Capetown to Glasgow". This song featured on their third release, ''King of the Ghost Train Ride'', which was released on Neontetra Records in 2005.
The duo played a full band set in Glasgow on 28 September 2009, which they announced during the show was their farewell gig.
