Blazin’ Fiddles
29 August, 2014 @ 8:00 pm
£14
Take a group of the hottest contemporary fiddle players from the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, mix with mind-blowing keyboard and guitar arrangements, and you’ve got the multi award-winning Blazin’ Fiddles.
Over the last 15 years, no other band has quite captured the excitement, passion and sensitivity of the Scottish music scene as Blazin’ Fiddles.
Like rare single malts, each member of the band draws on the distinct flavour of music from their own part of the Highlands and Islands, combining sensuous, slow airs with awesome, fiery ensemble playing.
Celebrating the ‘Folk Band of the Year’ award at the Scottish Traditional Music Awards 2013, Blazin Fiddles are promoting their latest album, Six.
Fiddlers Bruce Macgregor, Rua Macmillan, Kristan Harvey and Jenna Reid are joined by Anna Massie on guitar/fiddle, and Angus Lyon on keyboard to form one of the best live acts in the UK today, delivering an intoxicating and heady mix of musical energy.
“… changing direction as tightly as a flock of birds, their reels can take your breath away.”
