It’s not a rumour or a dream… there’s a special gig paying tribute to Fleetwood Mac taking place in Glasgow on Thursday.

Little Lies will take place at Mono and is set to feature a host of Glasgow acts performing interpretations of some of the band’s classics, from chart favourites to lesser known gems.

Among the acts appearing is Adele Bethel, formerly the frontwoman with indie rockers Sons & Daughters.

“It’s been so much fun that I hope it isn’t a one-off,” she says.

“My friend Vickie (McDonald, who used to play in the band Divorce) has organised it and asked if I’d be up for doing something like it, because they’re her favourite band and I love them too.

“So we thought we’d give it a go – they’re not the easiest band to cover, but it’s great fun, and it should be an amazing night!”

Other acts appearing on the night include singer-songwriter Chrissy Barnacle, saxophone-powered alt rock band Lylo and experimental folk act Two Wings.

Adele’s return to gigging is one of the more intriguing aspects of the show, however. She’s not performed in the city since Sons & Daughters called it a day back in 2012, after several years of being one of Glasgow’s best bands.

Now she’s looking forward to tapping into her inner Stevie Nicks.

“Stevie Nicks could go pretty wild when she wanted to, so I get to do some rock wailing, which has surprised myself that I could go to those lengths,” she adds.

“I did try to dress like Stevie on the last Sons & Daughters record too, but it became clear that hats don’t maketh the woman!

“Buying some nice hats and cape like dresses didn’t really change me into her, but I’m hoping to channel a bit of that on Thursday – I do have a cape ready to go too…”

On a more serious note, trying to tackle a frontwoman like Nicks does present a fair amount of challenges, especially given how complex some of the band’s arrangements could be.

“I’m not saying my old band were ever basic or anything like that, but some of these songs are just a different level,” explains Adele.

“I realised when we started rehearsing that they’re songs that sound simple but they’re really not at all. It’s quite a strange thing, because the whole band seem to follow the vocal line and they change when the vocal melody changes and it’s quite hard to figure that out, because most bands don’t do that.

“The way we worked was quite structured, and followed the guitar line or something like that.”

Adele also drew a few other parallels between the legendary group and her own band. It was while playing in Sons & Daughters that she started to really fall for the group, drawn in by their dramatic backstory and offstage drama as much as the songs.

“I used to love watching those rock documentaries and disaster stories like Behind The Music,” she recalls.

“Obviously they’re a band that has always had strife, and that’s interesting to get into. It got pretty rowdy and that’s fascinating too – throw a couple into the mix of a band and that’s a sure fire way of getting a disaster.

“Obviously everyone loves Fleetwood Mac but it was probably watching that when I really got into them, because it’s like a rock opera. Obviously in my old band I was part of a couple too (with guitarist Scott Paterson) and I guess I found that interesting on a psychological level as to what it can all do to a band’s dynamic.”

And the songstress hopes to be back gigging with her own songs sooner rather than later.

“I had a lot of stuff going on a personal level after the band split up, so I wasn’t really doing much music,” she says.

“I did a solo show in Warsaw last year, because there’s a few Polish musicians I’m friends with over there, and they learnt four or five solo songs I’d written. We had no rehearsals, just a soundcheck so it was one of those fly by the seat of your pants type gigs.

“It was a lot of fun, so I’m just doing some writing here and planning to maybe put a band together here to play at some point.”
