Blazin' Fiddles to raise temperature of new Eden Court
13 November 2007

Super group Blazin' Fiddles’ line-up features the hottest contemporary fiddle players from the Highlands and Islands.

Fiddlers Catriona Macdonald, Bruce Macgregor, Allan Henderson, Iain Macfarlane and Aidan O'Rourke are joined by Marc Clement on guitar and Andy Thorburn on keyboard to form one of the best live acts today

In the past decade no other band has quite captured the excitement, passion and sensitivity of Scottish music with such flair, capturing an avid international following with their barnstorming gigs which are more like informal parties.

During a Blazin’ Fiddles’ performance, the audience has a rare opportunity to hear pieces featuring the regional styles of each fiddler followed by all hands jumping in for a wonderful explosion of music. Fiddles and bows blaze away with guitar and piano for one of the most exciting and memorable fiddle ensembles ever to take the stage.

Combining sparkling solo sets with the full electrifying force of the ensemble playing, and a wealth of true Highland humour, they can raise the temperature
Of any venue like no other act.
