RACHEL HAIR TRIO - ACKERGILL TOWER - SUN 9 JUNE (7.30PM) - £10
An award-winning harper nominated for Scottish Folk Band of the Year (2011) and Best Live Act (2012) at the Scottish Trad Awards - and who sold out their Celtic Connections concert before the doors even opened - Caithness Castle Creations are delighted to bring the Rachel Hair Trio to Caithness.
Performing at Ackergill Tower on Sunday 9 June, this is a great opportunity to see one of best, leading trad folk acts around. An established, internationally-renowned group, the trio present a sparkling blend of melodic harp mastery, rootsy songs and sophisticated rhythmical drive.
Fronted by acclaimed harpist-composer Rachel Hair, and featuring the much-in-demand singer-guitarist Jenn Butterworth alongside top Scottish double bassist Euan Burton, the group has honed a repertoire drawn from traditional, contemporary and international sources to create performances that crackle with character, passion, verve and joie de vivre.
The trio's latest album (No More Wings) was listed as Album Of The Week by Radio Scotland.
