October Newsletter | Cuairt-litir An Dàmhair

Greetings from an autumnal Inverness.  We have some exciting news...  our album TÌR - Highland Life & Lore has been longlisted for Album of the Year at the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards 2019.  It is an honour to get this nomination among so many other amazing recordings.  

With this in mind, we would be so grateful if you would consider voting for us in the Best Album category.  There are other categories such as Gaelic singer of the year and Live act of the year too if you were feeling extra generous.  Note that as there are more than one Fiona Mackenzie singers out there you might want to put Fiona Mackenzie (Inverness) down to clarify your vote.  Brian's name is spelt Brian Ó hEadhra.  

Thanks so much for considering us and fingers crossed that we get nominated for something...

Upcoming Festivals / Fèisean a' Tighinn

We are delighted to be playing at the Belfast International Arts Festival on Saturday 19th October at the wonderful Irish language centre Aras Mhic Reachtain.  Beidh an oíche againn!  
On the 29th of October we play at one of our favourite venues, the Scottish Storytelling Centre, Edinburgh, where most of the amazing Scottish International Storytelling Festival takes place.  The name of our concert is: Stories Old and New Through Our Songs / Sgeulachdan seana is ùra tror n-òrain.  

Concerts / Cuirmean ciùil

We'll be playing at the Pier, Lairg, Sutherland as part of the fantastic Sutherland Sessions series on Saturday 16th November.  Fiona's people are from Sutherland and it is always a pleasure to play in this beautiful part of the Scottish Highlands.  

New Album / Clàr Ùr

We have finished recording and mixing our album TUATH - Songs of the Northlands.  It has been an inspirational journey working again with the multi-talented Mike Vass who has helped produce an album we are very proud of.  The album will be released on the Naxos World label in mid-January 2020 and we will have a public launch at the Celtic Connections Festival in Glasgow at the end of January.  We'll keep you updated...

TÌR - Highland Life & Lore is also being re-released digitally on Naxos World label.  
Well that's all from us for now.  Thanks for your interest in our work and please do get in touch if you would like to suggest a venue or festival for us to play near you.  Happy voting! Mar sin leibh...
