Event information

One of Scotland’s most celebrated folk singer-songwriters, Siobhan's musical prowess has earned her numerous accolades, including four BBC Alba Scots Trad Music Awards' Scots Singer of the Year titles and a BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for Best Traditional Track. In the trio, Siobhan will be joined by two of Scotland's finest musicians, Innes White on guitar and Charlie Stewart on fiddle. Look forward to a short set from Charlie and Innes before the break, then an hour and a quarter from the full Trio!
Siobhan's discography boasts five solo releases, all of which have been shortlisted for BBC Alba STMA Album of the Year. Her latest album, Bloom, is a freewheeling celebration of much-loved Scottish songs which deftly balances a love of traditional song with modern influences.
Having grown up in Scotland's rich folk scene, Siobhan has been a regular performer at Glasgow's Celtic Connections festival, where she was Artistic Director for the 2016 Opening Concert and featured amidst the star-studded Transatlantic Sessions line-up in 2022, duetting with Paul Brady and Sarah Jarosz.
Siobhan's unique vocal style has been honed through collaborations with many of Scotland's top musicians, including Eddi Reader, Kris Drever & Phil Cunningham. She has also made guest appearances with the National Theatre of Scotland, and spent a season on Broadway and a month-long residency in Boston's Majestic Theatre for Brian O'Donovan's Celtic Christmas.
