A galaxy of Edinburgh folk talent are coming together this Saturday night as part of #tradfest to support charity Freedom from Torture. This years lineup features an array of new and old talent living in the city including mother and daughter combination Mary Macmaster and Amy MacDougal. Keep it Up (Simon Thoumire, Eilidh Shaw, Kevin Mackenzie, Malcolm Stitt) will also reform for one night only. Last years concert was really exciting and a sellout so don’t miss it!
Simon Thoumire says “Last years was a brilliant night of music – so exciting and thoughtful at the same tonight. I can’t wait for this years event!”
