The Story is the fourteenth and final studio album by the Scottish rock band Runrig, released on 29 January 2016 on Ridge Records. This album is of particular significance as it is said to be Runrig's last studio album.[1] The lead single, also titled "The Story", was released in November 2015. To promote the release of the album, a sizeable UK and Europe-wide tour was announced including a trademark Edinburgh Castle summer concert[2] along with headlining the 21st HebCelt Festival on the Isle of Lewis.[3]
