Look out #Glasgow, @willharmonicas and I are playing at @pipinglive this August! Maybe we’ll both start learning the chanter in anticipation.
Or, maybe it’s safer for me to teach Will some new pipe tunes instead. I have quite a few favourites, but this one, The Skylark’s Ascension by Archibald Lindsay is a banger.
Our gig is on Tuesday, August 11th at 2:15pm at the @nationalpipingcentre

Had the best time at @shetlandfolkfest with @jennbutterworth and made so many new pals and saw some frankly extraordinary music.
A bit tired now ❤️ 😴 but great times!
I also discovered Iron bru for the first time. Oh dear.
What do Holst’s Planets Suite and Vaughan Williams’ Lark Ascending have in common? Both of their composers were inspired by English folk 🎻
Next week, feel the thrilling collision of alternative classical and left-field folk at the live album launch of @stevenspound 's 'Ascending'.
The brand-new project from Delia Stevens and Will Pound features maverick re-compositions of iconic classical pieces. This is your chance to hear it live for the first time on melodeon, harmonica and a dizzying array of percussion instruments.
'Good luck pigeonholing this debut [...] A truly unique exploration of the common bonds of English classical and folk traditions' - Nathaniel Hardy (Songlines Album of the Week)
Final tickets available at the website link in bio 🎟️
Back from @costa_festival in Ibiza, now we’re off to @shetlandfolkfest and the sun is still out - albeit maybe a few degrees cooler… Looking forward to a quiet weekend. 😂 🤣
We'd like to say a big thanks to @classicfm for sharing a section of our take on the Lark Ascending yesterday ❤️
Here is the full version recorded at @realworldstudios as part of our new album Ascending which was released last week. Buy tickets to our album launch 7th May 🎟 @kingsplacelondon in London as they are selling fast! Link in biog.
Thanks for all your support towards us!
