Taken by Harrison Reid of Victor Herrero and I in Glasgow.

Scotland, we bring this collaboration to you; Victor Herrero (Spanish guitar) and myself (trad fiddle from this Atlantic archipelago). A whirling dervish of cross-cultural improvisation using a dedication to traditional music as a springboard.

Feels good to blow my own trumpet every now and then; It’s bloody hard work making music these days.
