Robert Tannahill Songs: Volume CCL

£16.99

Released: 29th March 2024. Robert Tannahill, the 18th Century Paisley Weaver Poet, had the melodic gift of Robert Burns the song-writer and the radical sensibilities of Hamish Henderson. His 'Braes o Balquhidder' inspired the McPeake family's famous 'Wild Mountain Thyme' and his many fine pastoral songs, like 'The Braes o Gleniffer' have long been celebrated amongst folk musicians in Scotland and farther afield. The new CCL CD was released to a standing ovation at Celtic Connections to coincide with Tannahill's 250th anniversary. Featuring singers Fiona Hunter (Malinky); Claire Hastings (Trad Award Recipient); John Morran (Deaf Shepherd); Cameron Nixon (Rising Star & Finalist Trad Awards) Players Angus Lyon (Blazin Fiddles); Mare Duff (ex Capercaillie); Phil Alexander (Moishe's Bagels); Adam Bulley (Accompanist to Martin Taylor); Frank McLaughlin (Stewart Hardy Duo); Euan McLaughlin (Alba Awards Finalist); Chris Wright (Lucy Pringle Duo).

Freeman is currently Professor at The Royal Conservatoire of Music in Glasgow.
