Katie is a Gaelic and Scots singer from Airdrie who is greatly influenced by her connections to North Uist in the Outer Hebrides. She has had a passion for Gaelic and Scots song all her life and has been a semi-finalist in both BBC Radio Scotland’s Young Traditional Musician and BBC Radio 2’s Young Folk Award competitions. In 2018, Katie carried out an exchange of Gaelic and Catalan song while living in Barcelona and later released her debut EP –
Ciùine Na Mara – in April 2019 which is a mixture of the two styles and also self-penned folk song.
“Katie’s voice is like a cup of delicate, heavenly tea and her connection with the audience as she shares her wide repertoire of traditions, with respectful explanations is warm and engaging.” – Mairead Nic Illinnein, BBC Radio Nan Gàidheal
“Superbly executed puirt-a-beul” – The Oban Times
