With 2009 marking the 40th year of his multifaceted career, Brian McNeill has long been a key pillar of traditional and contemporary Scottish music.
A hugely compelling performer, both solo and with some of his era’s most influential bands, he is equally influential as a songwriter, composer, producer, teacher, musical director and bandleader.
Join him at Celtic Connections, with a host of musical friends made over those first four decades, to see where this great innovator might go next. They include singer of the muckle sangs and bothy ballads of his native Aberdeenshire, Jock Duncan and Sylvia Barnes, the vocal nucleus of the influential Glasgow band Kentigern, an elite group of female vocalists to sing the with the Battlefield Band.
Completing tonight’s line-up will be brilliant young band Bodega, Dominique Dodge (clarsach), Lorne MacDougall (pipes, whistles) and Sara Ann Cull (fiddle).
The vocal/instrumental five-piece Allan Yn Y Fan perform a lively mix of traditional and original material, mostly from their native Wales.
