He sings in the local accent and uses 'brutally honest' lyrics.[3][4] CareerEarly life and bandsCrosbie was raised in 'The Valley',[3] a residential area of the Castlemilk district of Glasgow. He has stated that as a child he listened to his mother's music cassettes including albums by The Rolling Stones, Simon & Garfunkel and The Beatles.[6][1] He has also stated that he was a fan of Oasis,[6][4] and has a particular admiration for the work of Bob Dylan.[6][4] Having experienced problems in the local area and in school as a young teenager, he spent some time living in London with the father of a friend; finding himself with little to do "apart from watch cricket or play guitar",[2][4] he became proficient in the instrument (as well as the harmonica).[14] On returning to Scotland he began writing songs, with his growing interest in creating and performing music proving a distraction in his attempts to hold down jobs in various industries over several years.[2][14] While performing a solo gig at a college he met aspiring producer Chris Marshall,[2] a neighbour from Castlemilk.[3] They began collaborating on a casual basis with Marshall arranging the songs and Crosbie the lyricist, and eventually formed a lo-fi band, The Cinnamons, along with Lori Duncan, Dave Bass and Gav Hunter;[3] with Gerry as frontman, they released a five-song EP in 2010.[4] Crosbie subsequently adopted the Cinnamon name as a solo performer and his later catalogue contains some compositions from the era, such as Sometimes.[21] An open mic night in a bar on Sauchiehall Street in central Glasgow gave him an opportunity to perform his songs, and the event became increasingly popular.[14] Rise in popularity and live showsIn 2014, having sold out gigs at small venues purely through word of mouth and social media,[5] he was invited to write and perform a song at a rally event in George Square ahead of the referendum on Scottish independence.[5][2] The song, Hope Over Fear, which was released as a single, introduced him to a wider audience – however he has stated that he had no desire to become a figurehead for the Yes campaign.[2][4] In summer 2015, Cinnamon supported John Power on tour,[5] released another single, Kampfire Vampire,[6] and performed to a large crowd on the T-Break Stage at T in the Park,[7][8][9] fulfilling a long-held ambition to play at the festival.[14] In July 2016 he again performed at T in the Park, this time at the 'King Tut's Wah Wah Tent' stage[10] as he had hoped to do a year earlier.[8] Despite having one of the traditionally least popular time slots across the weekend (2pm on Friday), his performance was again well-attended.[10][6][1] In October he was announced as 'Best Live Act' at the 2016 Scottish Alternative Music Awards.[11] In November, without being signed to a record label, he headlined a sold-out show at Glasgow's O2 ABC Glasgow, the promotion of which had consisted of a single message on his Facebook profile;[10][9][6] he later admitted he was so disorganised that he had not even prepared a set list for the performance.[6] In December, he supported Ocean Colour Scene in their show at the SSE Hydro.[12] 2017: Debut albumIn July 2017, Cinnamon appeared on the King Tut's stage at the TRNSMT festival (a non-camping replacement for T in the Park) on Glasgow Green,[13] again playing to a sizeable and enthusiastic crowd.[14] In September, he released his first album Erratic Cinematic, funded via the PledgeMusic platform[9] and produced by Chris Marshall,[15] which quickly rose to the number 1 spot in the UK iTunes chart for singer-singwriters (briefly outselling the likes of Ed Sheeran),[16][17][18] and 6th overall.[19] On the back of the album release, he announced a show at the Barrowland Ballroom to take place in December, with all tickets sold within hours of being released,[18] followed a few days later by a second date which sold out even more swiftly.[20][21] This achievement – a first for an unsigned artist – later earned him a place in the 'Barrowland Hall of Fame' alongside the likes of Noel Gallagher, David Bowie and Ocean Colour Scene.[22] In October he was presented with a 'Great Scot Award' for entertainment, following previous winners of the category such as Paolo Nutini and Kevin Bridges.[23][24] In December it was confirmed he would be returning to TRNSMT in 2018, this time on the main stage.[25][26][21] A few days before playing his Barrowland gigs, Cinnamon spoke out against operators of ticket scalping websites, after discovering they had purchased gig tickets at face value and then offered them for sale on their sites to desperate fans at hugely inflated prices.[27] Following his main stage performance at TRNSMT 2018 his debut album entered the Scottish Albums Chart. Peaking at no. 7 in July 2018.[28] 2018: TouringThe early months of 2018 were dominated by a sold-out Scottish tour,[29] followed by several dates across Britain and Ireland, with the vast majority of the tickets once more sold out well in advance and some gigs moved to higher capacity venues due to the demand.[30] During one performance in Inverness, he briefly stopped playing to confront a member of the audience who had thrown a drink onto the stage.[31] On 28 June 2018, two days before the event, the organisers of TRNSMT announced that Cinnamon's performance at the festival had been moved to a later, higher profile time slot (benefitting from J Hus's cancellation).[32][33] He was also booked to play at the RiZE Festival (the replacement of the long-running V Festival) and the Tartan Heart Festival (Belladrum) during August 2018.[34] A further four gigs were announced for the coming December in Glasgow, including on Christmas Eve;[35] those also sold out almost instantly, leaving unlucky fans frustrated. Some complained to Cinnamon via social media about the prices of tickets available on resale sites, leading him to respond publicly "If you think I want some corporate goon reselling my ticks for 10x the asking price you've lost it. If you think I'm somehow involved or can stop it when the biggest bands in the world can't do anything about it then you're misinformed at best".[36] Further December 2018 shows in Dundee, Aberdeen and Kilmarnock were later announced which again sold out in seconds.{{citation needed|date=September 2018}} Following a run of arena shows supporting The Courteeners, Gerry announced his own England and Ireland tour. Tickets for the tour again sold out within seconds leading to the addition of extra dates and upgraded venues. 2019Cinnamon headlined a stage at Edinburgh's Hogmanay 2018/19 street party.[37] In January 2019 he played two gigs in Amsterdam. In February, he was announced as one of the Friday main stage performers at the forthcoming TRNSMT event in July,[38] and was also added to the bill for several other festivals in the summer season including Benicàssim, Isle of Wight, Kendal Calling and Y Not. Views on the music industryCinnamon has encouraged aspiring artists to believe in themselves despite a lack of expensive backing,[21] and expressed a scathing distaste for the nature of music industry marketing and excessive hyping of inferior quality artists,[8][10][13] stating in 2016:[12][1]{{quote|"The only reason I'm in this game is because it's full of imposters ruining music and my very existence annoys them and it pleases me. If you're a working class musician hearing this or reading it and you respect the art of song writing more than the art of pretending then you have a responsibility to get involved. There's a war on for real music and if you're sound and can write decent tunes then you're on the front line whether you like it or not."}} DiscographyStudio albums
