FARA
Filskit Fiddles Fae Orkney
(“Filskit, adj: frisky, high-spirited, exuberant; addicted to immoderate hilarity”)

FARA brings together four leading musicians at the forefront of today’s Scottish folk scene. Kristan Harvey, Jeana Leslie and Catriona Price’s three fiddles combine with Rory Matheson’s piano to produce a fiery sound rooted strongly in their upbringing among the music of Orkney. Their repertoire of self-penned tunes, their original songs using words by Orcadian poets, alongside the four member's diverse individual musical experiences, combine to produce an exciting and individual sound. They have performed their music to audiences around the world and in autumn 2022 release their long-awaited new album. ‘Energy Islands’, the band’s third studio album, is inspired by Orkney’s innovation at the forefront of the renewable energy revolution. With vibrant arrangements full of rich harmonies, energetic fiddle playing and driving piano, audiences are sure to be thrilled by this new body of work.
