The Cauld is the new single from Scottish folksinger Iona Fyfe. A slight departure from previous releases, the song which follows a folk-pop structure is written by Iona in the Scots Language; one of Scotlands three national languages with over 1.5 million speakers (2011 census).

Fetlar Lullaby by Jenna Reid
The Fetlar Lullaby is a beautiful tune that I first learned from playing with the Shetland Fiddlers Society. The ‘the 40 fiddlers’ will celebrate their 60th birthday this year, and they’ve done an incredible job of promoting traditional Shetland fiddle music. Founded by the late Dr Tom Anderson and with Aly Bain and the late […]
Bonnie Lass of Fyvie by Iona Fyfe
A new single from Scots Singer, Iona Fyfe. One of the most well-known of Aberdeenshire songs, I got this from the singing of Sam Kelly, who recorded ‘The Bonnie Lass of Fyvie’ on his album titled “Pretty Peggy”. Bob Dylan recorded “Pretty Peggy-O” on his 1962 debut album and performed the song with a more […]

A Mhairead Òg (Young Margaret) is the first single from sibling duo Joy&Andrew’s new album, Dithis, released March 2020. There are several variations of this traditional song, in which we find a young man living in his widowed mother’s household. He is not yet of age to inherit the leabaidh àrd, a metaphor for his […]
While The Whole World Sleeps by Siobhan Miller
Following on from the slickly produced, mainstream-nudging 2018 album Mercury, this new release is a more stripped back affair, seeing Miller return to her roots. And where Mercury fielded all original songs All is Not Forgotten magically melds new and traditional songs in nine tracks with an overriding air of unrushed calm peppered with a […]

Wander Through This Land by Hannah Rarity
‘Wander Through The Land’ is one of two of my own songs from my debut album ‘Neath the Gloaming Star’. The song took shape between 2016/17 after I graduated from the RCS in Glasgow. 2016 saw Brexit and Donald Trump come to the fore and after originally feeling optimistic about the future post graduation, the […]
Montreal by Talisk
Montreal is the opening track of our album Beyond! It was written after a trip I took to Canada. Destination was Halifax and I got stuck in a snow storm which meant I had to lay over in Montreal. Normally a flight cancellation leads to a lot of distress and general frustration but this wasn’t […]
