We are delighted to have three very different and all absolutely excellent Scottish singers and musicians headlining our Scottish Night. Tickets here https://www.wegottickets.com/thegooseisout


They are joint headliners, so we are putting them on here in alphabetical order.


Carol Anderson will be well known to many of you as she is a Goose favourite and has appeared several times at both our concerts and club nights, both solo and with Stuart Forester and Hector Gilchrist.


Originally from Aberdeenshire, Carol is now based in London (luckily for us!) She is a brilliant fiddler, has a keen interest in Scottish pipe music,


Findlay Napier is one of the most highly-regarded performers and creative forces on the Scottish music scene ? thoroughly active and a truly energised with a heart-warming zing.


He made his name touring and recording with multi-award winning traditional Scottish folk band Back of the Moon. In his more recent projects ?Queen Anne?s Revenge? and ?The Bar Room Mountaineers? his song-writing took centre stage and was described by The Sunday Herald as ?Genuine songcraft and wit following in the Difford & Tilbrook tradition?.


Findlay is also well known as the host of Celtic Connections? Late Night Sessions and for his Hazy Recollections concert series which showcases the very best in new roots music.


Iona has become one of Scotland?s finest young ballad singers, rooted deeply in the singing traditions of the North East of Scotland. Winner of Scots Singer of the Year at the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards 2018, Iona has been described as ?one of the best Scotland has to offer.?


Iona is accompanied tonight by guitarist Aidan Moodie who belongs to a rich vein of Orcadian folk musicians that have made a name for themselves outside of the northern isles. Since moving to Glasgow in 2015 Aidan has become one of traditional music's most sought after accompanists, playing all over Europe.

    • I completely agree with you . Its as if they have their foot in the door and are just pushing and pushing. It's ridiculous. It's not the right space. they clearly do not give any regard to the environment or they would move it.  
    • There's a great badminton club at the Harris girls academy. It runs Friday from 5.30 to 6.45. for more experienced players, they have sessions on Wednesday and Friday, too but that's subject to skill levels 
    • There seem to be all sorts of blocks for this event being mounted on the Common, one is that it was 'designed especially' for the current site, though the organisers seem to have had absolutely no problem rejigging their plans to the original site footprint to expand the event to what we had last year- which I think really imposed on a large part of the park and spoilt the feel. I would suggest pressing very hard for relocation to the Common ( also closer to transport links). There must be a way, surely? If not, then wholesale relocation to a more suitable venue. I just do not think the park should be subjected to a festival-goer footfall of 60,000 plus over the summer.
    • I absolutely will. Fed up of property developments that are funded from offshore investors and price out local people. Fed up of the demise of social rents and the growing crisis of families in bed and breakfast. Fed up of young people being unable to save deposits, start families and generally have the same security of tenure that previous generations had. So yes, I will drill down into the financing, affordability, where the properties aer being advertised for sale, and how many are genuinely for social rent. Otherwise, no opposition to redeveloping that site in that way.
