\"IA_logo(gold)\"Hands Up for Trad\u2019s Ignition Award is an award for musicians and bands who put the charge into the tradition. At Hands Up for Trad we like to celebrate innovation so we have brought forward this award to celebrate those musicians who take chances and in doing so make Scottish trad music an exciting place to be. Often these artists don\u2019t get as much press attention or sell as many records as more mainstream acts but we know they are out there, want to celebrate them and let the public and press find out more about them. This award will be presented thrice yearly and if you know of a band or musician who deserves this award please tell us here<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
