Event information

..a breathtaking soundscape from two real visionaries on the contemporary world music scene..

Gris Sanderson (Scotland) : fiddle, nyckelharpa, bodhran

Juldeh Camara (Gambia): vocals, riti, koloko, talking drum

A rare chance to catch an unmissable live & intimate set as Gris & Juldeh launch music from 'Traders' their 2011 debut CD which is rapidly gathering outstanding reviews from the mainstream and world music press alike. ..'a telling combination of inspiration and hard work...lovely stuff & full of endless surprises..'

(Nigel Williamson : Songlines Magazine)

Expect an extraordinary encounter where the desert sounds of West African riti, a one-stringed fiddle of ancient design, meets its European sisters the violin and the amazing Swedish nyckelharpa, to bring us snaking Fula trance melodies from the Sahel's nomadic herdsmen joining tumbling strathspeys & reels from Scottish crofts & dancehalls.
