TRNSMT music festival begins in the scorching heat

He said: "It's quite early and the first day of the festival but it was amazing, there were people right down the front and it filled out during the rest of the set.

"Everyone was singing back, everyone seemed on good form. It [the festival} is the big one to do as a Scottish musician."

Other Friday acts include singer-songwriter James Bay, who sparked a sing-a-long with his hit Hold Back The River, and hometown heroes Twin Atlantic.

Anti Conservative party chanting broke out during Jamie Webster's set on the Main Stage.

However the singer, known for making political statements in the past, said it wasn't a day to be political, it was one to enjoy the festival.

One change to Saturday's line-up was announced early on the day - rock band Wunderhorse dropping out of their scheduled slot due to illness.

They will be replaced by Miles Kane on the bill.

Lesley Lapsley, who has been going to festivals since T In The Park in the 1990s, was there with her son Aidan,

She said: "The last time I was at TRNSMT was with my daughter to see Stormzy when she was 16, and now I'm here with Aidan as he's 16.

"We'd love a surprise set from Lewis Capaldi,or someone like that, but I don't know if that's likely.

"It could do with a few more bigger acts, someone like the Prodigy, but it's great for the younger generation."

Also playing on the Friday are Liverpool singer-songwriter Jamie Webster, indie duo Wet Leg and Confidence Man - who replaced rap trio Kneecap on the King Tut's stage after the band were controversially dropped from the bill.

The event continues with Biffy Clyro, Fontaines D.C and Underworld among the acts on Saturday.

The event will end on Sunday with Snow Patrol, Gracie Abrams and former Little Mix singer Jade Thrilwell performing.
