Abstract

This article explores the careers of the first three musical stars of television in Scotland: Jimmy Shand, Andy Stewart and Kenneth McKellar. With reference to the shows with which they were most closely associated, The Kilt Is My Delight (1956–63), The White Heather Club (1958–68) and A Song for Everyone (1957–62), it investigates popular music on television from Scotland during its formative years, highlighting the geographic and political issues that made this distinct in a wider context. Drawing on a range of archival sources, it argues the importance of these acts and shows them both as a counterpoint to existing accounts of popular music on early television and in the wider context of the music and entertainment industries.
