Arts D&G Present SAND, SILT, FLINT. Tickets £5-£10
Sand, Silt, Flint brings to life the acclaimed album from Aberdeenshire-based singer-producer Fiona Soe Paing, described by Iggy Pop on BBC 6 Music as “advanced and beautiful…” and by Songlines as “a sublimely powerful and lingering experience.” Contemporary re-workings of Northeast Scottish ballads sit alongside innovative compositions inspired by folklore and landscape, drawing audiences into the places and stories behind each song.
Arts D&G Present, FIRELIGHT TRIO
Firelight Trio is a mighty new group featuring Fatea instrumentalist of the year 2023 Gavin Marwick (fiddle), accordionist Phil Alexander (Moishe’s Bagel), and Ruth Morris (Outlander – HBO) on the beautiful Swedish Nyckelharpa. They play European music that is evocative, inventive, and endlessly exciting. Ruth’s resonant nyckelharpa is matched by Gavin’s powerhouse fiddle, all backed up by Phil’s groovily inventive accordion and piano, in a rich tapestry of lively Swedish polskas and Scottish reels, lilting French waltzes, toe-tapping klezmer, dazzling original tunes and more. Don’t miss them!

The gathering Quartet
The Gathering Quartet, is a dynamic new European folk quartet who use traditional string music to strengthen connection between their countries of Ukraine, Scotland, England and Sweden.
Olena Yeremenko - fiddle (Ukraine)
Louis Bingham - guitar, bouzouki, cittern, mandolin (England)
Mats Nystam - bouzouki, mandolin (Sweden)
Luisa Brown - fiddle, octave fiddle (Scotland)
With the increasing pressures on communities across Europe, The Gathering Quartet brings together four highly regarded traditional musicians from four European nations who want to use their musical connections to transcend cultural and political boundaries. Aiming to inspire cross-cultural connection between themselves and their audiences, they explore their roots by experimenting with sensitive arrangements of traditional tunes and their own compositions. They prioritise performing in resonant and inspiring venues which allow them to perform purely acoustic, and help amplify the soul and the magic of live music performance in an intimate setting.
Travelling from their various countries, this group have a very rare chance once again to meet this August in the Scottish Borders. This performance is a one-off opportunity to see them perform.
"A completely one-of-a-kind performance of a wonderful entanglement of traditions, wielded by four exceptional international musicians. Not to be missed." - Kate Young
