Fred Morrison

Fred Morrison is a Scottish musician and composer. He was born and raised in Glasgow, but it’s the celebrated Gaelic piping tradition that of his father’s native South Uist that forms the bedrock of Fred’s intensely expressive, uniquely adventurous style. Although his first love instrument remains the Highland bagpipes, over the years his mastery has expanded to encompass whistles, Scottish smallpipes or reelpipes and Irish uileann pipes. Dubbed the Jimi Hendrix of the pipes, Morrison has performed with seminal Scottish bands Clan Alpa and Capercaillie.
