Premiered at Celtic Connections 2006, The Island Tapes is an unforgettable multi-media experience masterminded by the innovative Scottish guitarist David Allison, marrying vintage films of Scottish island life with potently atmospheric live soundscapes.
Renowned for a unique performance method that incorporates real-time recording, looping and layering, Allison is joined once again by Scotland’s leading classical guitarist Allan Neave, fingerstyle virtuoso Ian Melrose and Gaelic songstress Alyth McCormack.
Together with previously featured films shot on St Kilda, Skye, Harris, Orkney and Shetland, this afternoon’s show will include A New Way to a New World, documenting a 1936 Glasgow-New York sea voyage, and archive audio exploring the theme of emigration.
Fees:
A transaction charge of £1 applies to all phone and online bookings.
