First Ever Concert Performance

The 'Captain's Collection' was a play originally commissioned for the Highland Festival in 1999. It told the story of the life and music of Captain Simon Fraser (1773 - 1852). The Captain published a collection of Highland Music in 1816. Fearful of offending the British establishment with Jacobite sentiments he omitted the song lyrics. Despite this, many of them have survived by their merit and popularity. The production has since undergone two highly successful tours, has been adapted into an international award wining music drama documentary for BBC Radio Scotland. Its commissioned music is now a highly acclaimed CD on the Greentrax label.

This will be the first ever concert gig featuring the songs and music, which moves between the robustness of traditional Highland playing and the more refined stylised settings that are found in Captain Fraser's collection.

Performing at Edinburgh Folk Club will be the outstanding singer from the Western Isles, Alyth McCormack; Jonny Hardie (Old Blind Dogs) and Gavin Marwick (Iron horse) on fiddle; Rory Campbell (Deaf Shepherd, Old Blind Dogs) on pipes and whistle, and Brian McAlpine (Iron Horse, The Pearlfishers) on keyboards.

Undoubtedly one of the all-time great folk musicians of Scotland, and also a fine songwriter. Archie would be worth turning out for just for the way he interweaves his delicate guitar playing through the song, never mind the voice, and the integrity and commitment which he brings to the material.

'Both the James Dean and Frank Sinatra of folk music' - Folk Roots

Edinburgh Folk club's own version! It might not be recognised in Dumfries though. No bardolatry. No long speeches. In fact damn few speeches, maybe none at all, but certainly a toast or two. More of a haggis and neeps, good company, some songs, a few drams and a celebration, warts and all, of a great poet and songwriter.

An excellent singer together with an highly respected and talented guitarist in an unusually eclectic repertoire. Fiona is a prize-winning traditional singer, well known as a member of the vocal harmony group 'Sangsters' who have released two CDs on Greentrax. Sandy is a superb guitarist whose musical background ranges from classical music, through both traditional and contemporary folk to work with jazz singers such as Carole Kidd. He has appeared on many recordings both as guitarist and musical arranger. His first solo album, 'Crossing the Line', reflecting his broad taste in music, has been released to critical acclaim. Together Fiona and Sandy provide an evening which is extremely entertaining as well as musically accomplished.

Allan Taylor is internationally recognised as the songwriter's songwriter - there are over forty covers of his songs by artists as distinguished and varied as Fairport Convention, De Danaan, Dick Gaughan, Don Williams and Frankie Miller. As of 1999, he had recorded fourteen albums of his own songs. The Oxford Book of Traditional Verse says 'he should probably be regarded as potentially the most important songwriter of his generation'. But this is a live gig and what is just as important is that he's a great performer.

'Beautifully crafted, worldly-wise songs with beguiling precision-built guitar accompaniments, delivered in a firm, American-tinged voice that sounds as if it is telling you a story' Alistair Clark in The Scotsman

Tony McManus needs little introduction - a guitarist who gets better by the year (maybe by the week) and has an ever growing international reputation recognising him as one of the finest acoustic guitarists in the world. He is joined for this tour by Alain Genty on fretless bass. Alain Genty is one of the key composers, producers and musicians on the Breton scene in the last decade having been a member of Barzaz, Den and Gwerz.

Throughout the 1970s and early 80s Ossian was at the forefront of the revival in Scots and Gaelic song, and pioneered a richly-textured and much-admired blend of pipes, harp and fiddle. Founder members Billy Ross and William Jackson are at the head of the current line-up, and are joined by Stuart Morison on fiddle and Iain MacInnes on pipes, both of whom played with the Tannahill Weavers. The band's first album in 11 years, The Carrying Stream, was released in September 1997.

'What we have here is a style and mood, a restraint and delicacy, a love of pure sweet melody, that can be found in everything Ossian did in the early days.' - The Scotsman

'... an easy performing style in the fireside manner but of concert stage quality.' - The Herald

'...a poised and happy balance of the elemental acoustic entities of wire and gut strings, wind and reed.' - The Scotsman

First appearance in Scotland for a very talented young traditional singer, who is also a brilliant instrumentalist, on piano, flute, accordion and whistle.. Bill won the Horizon (Best Newcomer) Award at the BBC Folk Awards, held in London on February 5th and is rapidly acquiring a formidable reputation.
However, Bill Jones is not what you might expect. For a start, he's a she (Bill is short for Belinda) so instead of a six foot bloke you get a lively young woman.

Bill has a beautiful voice with a slight huskiness that prickles your neck, and makes you want to hear more. With her entertaining introductions, and heart-stopping songs such as the sleeping beauty tale of Taimse im Chodladh, she delivered one of the finest sets at the festival, and established an immediate following. - Fylde Folk Festival

What does new name on the scene Bill (short for Belinda) Jones have to offer? Quite a lot, actually. She has a good singing voice, individual, but with hints of Sandra Kerr and a faint similarity to Anne Briggs. And she has a formidable talent for instrumental playing, a product of musical training from an early age, but her dad had a ceilidh band, giving her exposure to traditional music. Along with her abilities on piano, accordion, various flutes and whistles, she can sing unaccompanied and does so very well. Keep an eye on Bill. And an ear. - Roy Harris in Taplas

Rare opportunity to hear these two outstanding singers from Perthshire and Angus together.

Lorraine Jordan is a highly acclaimed singer and songwriter with two albums to her credit. Her thoughtful, melodic and powerful songs reflect her Celtic heritage and embrace her varied musical tastes. Always a gripping performer, appearances with her band are not to be missed.

Take two Irish parents well steeped in music (her father an All Ireland Champion on the flute), add a good measure of the spirit typical of Wales, the land of her birth, flavour it with Scottish grit and practicality, the result of her lengthy stay in Scotland, and you will have the artistically explosive mixture that is synonymous with the name Lorraine Jordan. - Messaggero Venuto (Friuli / Italy)

Born in Glasgow, raised in Leith, Dick Gaughan has developed into one of the most respected and sought-after musicians in the UK. Unequivocally 'on the left' he is marked by his essential optimism in the human ability to overcome, the essential optimism in the lot of mankind that makes a socialist.

'... stretched the simple form of acoustic guitar and vocal to extraordinary lengths'

'... identifying and then interpreting songs of such real emotional depth with unwavering belief and boldness is a dying art. Few do it in any field. Fewer still do it with this level of authority.' - Colin Irwin in Folk Roots

Calluna is an exciting collaboration involving four well known musicians: Charlotte Petersen on clarsach; Anna-Wendy Stevenson on fiddle; Rebecca Knorr on flute and whistles; and Wendy Weatherby on cello and vocals. Combining these instruments long established in the Scottish musical tradition, they produce a sound which is unmistakably their own, and their approach to traditional music is fresh and spirited.

'Rory McLeod has a profound disadvantage - for pigeon-holers and hacks - that he is so original it's nigh impossible to compare him with anyone else. An awe inspiring live performer who, you discover when you repay his craft with the scrutiny it deserves, writes quite brilliant songs.' - Ian Anderson, Folk Roots

Duck Baker is one of the most highly regarded fingerstyle guitarists of his generation. His repertoire ranges from traditional Irish music through old-time mountain music and bluegrass to blues, gospel, ragtime, swing and modern jazz. His humorous and informative stage manner is his trademark. He tours in the UK rarely these days so this will be his first EFC appearance since 1996.

'that Duck Baker can bring not only mesmerising technique but a wealth of knowledge and experience to bear on such a wide range of music is truly a wondrous thing' - Tony McManus

A unique act - a law unto himself. Singer and piano player certainly with maybe a touch of the Auld Alliance as a Scottish chansonier. A bit of a rock and roller with a touch of the blues? Occasional bursts of surreal imagination? A powerful social conscience mixed wth deep compassion? It's all their and much more besides.

"He rocks, he's smart, and his tunes walk a razor's edge of wit. A man with piercing eyes, Marra looks into the soul, his songs as big as life, his characters scarred and inadequate, his images irksome ..." - Folk Roots

Welcome return of this excellent American duo. Rather than confine themselves to a single style, Magpie has always embraced a wide range of American music, and with impressive proficiency in each different genre. From classic country, swing, and blues of the nineteen twenties and thirties, to contemporary songs written by themselves and others, Terry and Greg cover a lot of musical ground. Exciting singers, great harmonies, and stylish accompaniments on guitar, harmonica, mandolin and dulcimer.

First gig at EFC in a long time for a guitarist and singer who was already at the top of his tree before he emigrated to the USA twelve years ago, and has since acquired near cult status.

America's Acoustic Guitar magazine earlier this year voted him one of the fifteen most important artists of the 90s.

'His guitar playing has an eloquence that needs recognise few peers' -Folk Roots

Another artist who has long been popular in Edinburgh and has been away from EFC for far too long. Martyn has one of the best voices in traditional music, distinctive and instantly recognisable, warm and totally engaging which perfectly matches his stage presence. He spent seven years in Australia in the 1960s and his repertoire is a unique mixture of British traditional material and traditional songs reflecting the experiences of the settlers and convicts who went to Australia - with differing degrees of enthusiasm.

Tarras is a young band from the Scots/English Borders. Their love of their region's traditional music is matched by their awareness of other contemporary forms, from blues to '90s dance music.

One of the very best songriters returns, this time with guitarist Chris Jones. Kieran's powerful and passionate performances of his songs have regularly drawn people to EFC to hear his always interesting and thought provoking lyrics matched by his distinctive melodic style.

More info at http://www.kieranhalpin.com

"The songs, however, are only part of the story, Halpin, more than most, has a voice that sells the songs. It's unusual for a contemporary songwriter to sound so Irish (Christy Moore apart) and it's rare for anyone to sound so hard. This has the effect of accentuating all the emotions." - Folk Roots

"This is "The Three Ia(i)ns" first visit to EFC, coming into existence when Iain Fraser and Ian Lowthian backed Ian Bruce on his most recent album along with a fourth Iain, Iain Murray(percussion). This gig will certainly be something different with Ian Bruce, who is of course a regular at EFC and as always these days brings his own mix of traditional and self-penned songs. He is joined by Iain Fraser, principal fiddle tutor at the RSAMD whose fiddle and viola playing is receiving ever more acclaim and Ian Lowthian another popular tutor and an accordian vituoso if ever there was one, who was last at EFC in the company of Catriona MacDonald.
