The music festival was headlined by Britpop legends Ocean Colour Scene and also featured sets by Dundee indie rockers The View, West Yorkshire Britpop survivors Embrace and 90s indie-dance band Republica.
Given the era the bands are from, as well as it seemed the fans in attendance, the festival definitely had a mini T in the Park feel to it, with the location of the event next to Edinburgh Airport bringing back memories of the legendary Scottish music festival’s Balado Airfield site.
Summer Sessions Edinburgh returns on Saturday, August 24 with indie rockers Catfish and The Bottlemen.

15. Great day and night
The fans at Summer Sessions Edinburgh had a great day and night at The Royal Highland Showgrounds, with many comparing the event to the old T in the Park music festival when it was staged in Balado. With the acts on stage also from that era, it certainly was a trip down memory lane for thousands in attendance on Saturday. | National World Photo: Kevin Quinn
