Tell us about yourself
My name is Ruairidh Maclean, I am a box player from Ullapool.
Why are you involved in Scottish music?
My mum used to take me to the mòd to compete as a singer, but then started playing the accordion at nine years old.
Any particular career highlights?
None
What are your plans for the future?
If I could keep doing my hobby as a job I’d be over the moon. I’d like to maybe get a band going and see more of the world
