About this album
This Is The Story is the breakthrough debut that introduced The Proclaimers’ sharp harmonies, dry wit and plain-speaking Scottish identity to a wider audience. Released in 1987, the album blended folk-rock drive with pub-singalong hooks and pointed storytelling, making songs such as Over And Done With and Letter From America stand out as instantly memorable calling cards. Its mix of acoustic strum, direct lyrics and committed vocal unison gave the duo a distinctive voice in British pop, and helped establish them as one of the most recognisable acts to emerge from the late 1980s folk-rock scene.
