TRNSMT 2022: Paolo Nutini fans split as Glasgow Green reacts to singer's big comeback gig

Paolo Nutini fans had mixed opinions after the Paisley singer took to the main stage at TRNSMT on Friday.

TRNSMT runs from July 8 to 10 with major acts headlining Glasgow Green. Paolo Nutini closed the show on Friday, just a week after releasing his latest album, Last Night in the Bittersweet.

The album hit number one just before his set at the long-awaited music festival. But the Jenny Don't Be Hasty singer faced criticism from some ticket holders who slammed his setlist and alleged 'new style'.

One wrote: "No Last Request or Rewind from Paolo Nutini."

Another added: "Paolo Nutini headlining and then not playing some of his biggest bangers, or playing them but making them unrecognisable, is not what I'm here for. What a shame because the voice on that man is unbelievable."

A third posted: "That new Paolo Nutini is not festival friendly. Boring and bringing the vibes down, big man."

Another commented: "Paolo, take another five years off, lad."

Meanwhile, others were thrilled at his big Glasgow comeback.

One simply stated: "Paolo Nutini is magnificent."

Another added: "Paolo Nutini live in Glasgow is the best thing that's ever happened to me in my life."

A third gushed: "Paolo Nutini at TRNSMT is truly a thing of beauty. Those trumpets along with his gravelly voice on Iron Sky. What an extraordinary talent"

While another wrote: "What a masterful performance tonight at TRNSMT from Paolo Nutini. He showed his full range of talent, from tender ballads, to rock god front man, with essences of Led Zeppelin, to AC/DC.

"A proper modern superstar."
