Please Note: This is a past event event.
Don't worry we have plenty more current events to choose from.
Sampling the current wave of musicians forging new common ground between Celtic, British, American and Nordic traditions, this four-act bill is hosted by the vibrant Edinburgh-based vocal/instrumental quartet Fribo, performing with Norwegian guests Annlaug Børsheim (fiddles) and Silje Hegg (flutes), and Gaelic singer Naomi Harvey.
Also featured are the fiendishly inventive Anglo-Swedish duo of Ian Carr (guitar) and Niklas Roswall (nyckelharpa); the exciting new instrumental five-piece Baltic Crossing, comprising musicians from Finland, Denmark and England, and Californian folk/classical fusioneer Barry Phillips, playing a customised cello with sympathetic strings, like those found on a hardanger fiddle or nyckelharpa.
