Pianist/vocalist Hamish Napier (Back of The Moon, Man’s Ruin) and fiddler Adam Sutherland (Treacherous Orchestra, Session A9, Croft No. 5) join forces in a new and daring project. The duo will perform a series of ‘off-the-cuff’ gigs across the country, showcasing the talent of two of Scotland’s leading traditional musicians. The performances bring a crucial part of Scotland’s music culture, the informal session, to the foreground and cast it in a fresh light, bringing its open-endedness and spontaneity onto the concert platform. The material ranges from traditional songs and tunes to contemporary numbers, and to their own compositions and improv. These live performances capture the duo’s raw creativity and demonstrate their outstanding musical intuition.
