Don't worry we have plenty more current events to choose from.

Performing tonight with his own band – a highlight of the 2009 Hebridean Celtic Festival – Skye musician and composer Blair Douglas is slowly shedding his reputation as Gaelic music’s best kept secret. After he was voted Composer of the Year at the 2008 Scots Trad Music Awards, the following year also saw the premiere of his groundbreaking Gaelic mass, An Aifreann Ghàidhlig.

Comprising five rising stars from Scotland, Ireland, Cape Breton and Vancouver, on fiddle, flute, vocals, harp, accordion and guitar, The Outside Track – who launch their second album tonight – create “modern acoustic folk music of the very highest quality” (Maverick).

Please note that all patrons must be over the age of 14 and anyone under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

Tickets:  £12.50
