Skye Boat Song by William Ross (Traditional Scottish), played by me
RE: https://mastodon.scot/@scotlit/115865241234087967
Siobhan Miller has a lovely version of this winter snow (winter's no) song that has been in my head since waking up - probably prompted by seeing @scotlit's post just before going to bed (as well as the, y'know, snow).

Re-posting this old thread, for anyone wanting a jolly Christmas tale of resistance and a non-Christmassy Christmas song 🌲

Don't need Spotify to tell you my Wrapped would consist exclusively of this song, played approx. 5 million times in the final weeks of writing my thesis.
Will you drink with me to better days
No matter what they say
We might not know the answers
But we'll always find a way
Will you drink with me to better days
A stranger or a friend
We might not know the answers
But we'll find them in the end
Tide Lines, Better Days - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeOTLiGrO84
Sad to hear that Adam McNaughtan has died - singer, songwriter, founder-member of Glasgow Uni Folk Club, English teacher and organiser of famed Rutherglen Academy ballad club.
His Jeely Piece Song was a frequent fixture of my childhood, as I assume it was for every other Scottish wean of the past six decades. I never met him, but from how I've heard his friends speak I know he was a fond friend and treasured presence - and an absolute folk legend!
Runrig – The Stamping Ground (2001, Scotland)
Our next spotlight is on number 6 on The List, submitted by Almandine.
Formed on the Isle of Skye in 1973, Runrig was a much-beloved Celtic rock band that, among other things, was the first to have a song sung in Scottish Gaelic make the UK Singles Charts. By the time we get to this, their 11th studio album, they had long expanded their sound beyond traditional ceilidh/pastoral folk to be more folk rock, sung more songs in English than Gaelic, and had a number of line-up changes including lead singer Donnie Monro leaving (in 1997) and being replaced by Canadian Bruce Guthro. It apparently took a bit to get fans onboard with the change in lead vocalist, but this album brought renewed interest in the band (particularly across the pond) and it was ultimately their most successful. This album has even been played in outer space, taken onboard the space shuttle Columbia by American NASA astronaut Laurel Clark on the ill-fated STS-107 mission in 2003. The shuttle disintegrated upon re-entry but Clark’s CD copy was somehow found by NASA investigators in what little wreckage survived, in a field somewhere in Texas. Clark’s family presented the CD to Runrig, and the CD would later become part of a museum exhibition on the band (I’m not crying you’re crying).[1]

Scottish folk pioneer Dick Gaughan’s fight for his lost music
The way this article talks about Gaughan and folk music is a bit eye-roll, but it's also good to see this issue getting serious press attention.
Tonight some Scot Rock with Mànran

Damit habe ich gar nicht mehr gerechnet. Mit #Skipinnish geht im nächsten Jahr eine der besten scottish folk Bands auf Deutschlandtour und kommt auch nach Berlin. Ich habe sie letztes Jahr vor dem Edinburgh Castle gesehen und es war ein wirklich großartiges Live-Erlebnis. Ein uneingeschränkter Tipp für den persönlichen Konzertplan 2026!

It's that time of the year again - time to nominate your favourite folky artists and facilitators.
Obviously my picks for Best Album are Rachel and Aaron and Ainsley, but if you do remember a certain Gaelic columnist for The List in the media category, that would be much appreciated.

Celebration of a decade of #FireStationCreative in #Dunfermline tonight.
20+ artists' studios, a cafe/bar, 125 visual arts exhibitions, over 1000 musical performances over the decade.
Too often, projects fall into excess focus on capital outlay for flashy redesigns and then fail to sustain. By contrast, the Fire Station, achieving a strong reconstruction through local initiative and effort, has thrived.
Calling all trad flute and whistle players. The Aberdeen FluteFling returns 31 October - 2 November with Hamish Napier and Kirsten Allstaff in concert, workshops and sessions.
