Tell us about yourself<\/strong>
\nWe are a 6 piece band originating from Inverness. Half of us are now down studying at the RCS. We released our debut album \u2018From the River\u2019 in March of 2023.<\/p>\n

Why are you involved in Scottish music?<\/strong>
\nWe have all been exposed to traditional music from a young age and met many people through it.<\/p>\n

Any particular career highlights?<\/strong>
\nWe particularly enjoyed Lorient Festival earlier this year, it was our first international gig and we had a great time.<\/p>\n

What are your plans for the future?<\/strong>
\nPut on more of our own shows, travel more, release more music.<\/p>\n
