A busy Friday at Belladrum saw stages packed out by crowds of festival-goers for performances by CMAT and Supergrass.

Excitement had been building ahead of CMAT's night-time performance, and her thousands of fans were thrilled when she climbed over a safety barrier and into the crowd during her set.

Following performances of Take a Sexy Picture of Me and I Wanna Be a Cowboy, Baby, the Irish singer-songwriter ended with Stay for Something.

Supergrass - who are marking 30 years since the release of their first album I Should Coco - were next on the main stage with hits including Caught by the Fuzz.

The three-day music festival near Beauly in the Highlands is due to close later with Tide Lines, Peter Capaldi, Example, Tom Walker and Texas among the headliners.

Hot House main stage performers earlier on Friday had included blues guitarist Toby Lee, while funk band Bohemian Monk Machine and blues/rock singer Elles Bailey were among the popular acts over on the Garden Stage.

The festival site on the historic Belladrum Estate got busier during the evening as fans poured in for performances by CMAT and Supergrass, who had both appeared at the Glastonbury Festival earlier this year.

But other acts also drew big crowds.

There was barely a space to be found inside the Grassroots tent for Black Sabbath tribute act, Sabbra Cadabra, and their show in honour of Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne who died just days ago at the age of 76.

And the Garden Stage - Bella's second largest venue after the Hot House stage - was rammed for Beluga Lagoon, a musical project led by Scottish wildlife cameraman Andrew O'Donnell.

Tony Lawther said he travelled from 1980s Southampton to be at Bella

The festival's theme this year is cinema, and few festival-goers could match Tony Lawther's effort.

He drove almost 600 miles from Southampton in his 44-year-old DeLorean - a car that is one of the stars of the Back to the Future films.

Dressed as the movie's character Doc, Tony joked his journey from the 1980s to the future had gone as well as hoped though added: "The flux capacitor fell out half way up the M6, but apart from that it was great."

BBC Alba is providing live coverage of the festival and iPlayer broadcasts across the weekend.

The shows can be watched live or on demand on Belladrum on BBC Alba.
