Rachel Hair Trio in concert - Saturay 6 October, Centenary Centre, Peel, 7.30pm
“One of the UK’s finest contemporary Celtic harpists and tunesmiths” Songlines
“Nominated Folk Band of the Year” Scots Trad Awards
One of the leading bands on Scotland’s vibrant folk scene, the Rachel Hair Trio, presents a sparkling blend of melodic harp mastery, rootsy songs and sophisticated rhythmical drive. Fronted by acclaimed harpist-composer Rachel Hair and featuring the much-in-demand singer-guitarist Jenn Butterworth and top Scottish double bassist Euan Burton, the group has honed a repertoire drawn from traditional, contemporary and international sources to create performances that crackle with character, passion, verve and joie de vivre. Support is provided by “Claasagh” a group of young Manx harpers that Rachel tutors once a month on the island with the support of the Manx Heritage Foundation.
Tickets are £10 and will be available very soon from the usual Centenary Centre outlets
