Singer, harpist and composer Rachel Newton draws on poems and ballads that are hundreds of years old, working them into her contemporary style to create a rich sound that is ambitious, original and unique. Previously awarded Musician of the Year at both the BBC Radio 2 Folk Award and the Scots Trad Music Award, Rachel has had two of her solo albums shortlisted in the Scottish Album of the Year (SAY) Award. She also has a Critics Award for Theatre in Scotland for Best Use of Music and Sound.
A skilled collaborator, Rachel is a member of The Furrow Collective, The Lost Words: Spell Songs and duo projects Heal & Harrow with fiddler Lauren MacColl and Anna Bhàn with her cousin Mairearad Green. She has worked across various platforms including theatre and storytelling.
