FARA will perform a Scottish folk music show at the Corn Exchange in Haddington, Edinburgh. The event features a mix of vocals, harmonies and instrumentation typical of the genre. Tickets are available via the organiser’s website.
FARA are a powerhouse in the Scottish folk music scene, igniting stages with their magnetic blend of spellbinding vocals, intricate harmonies, and driving fiddle tunes rooted in rich tradition of the Orkney Islands. With three award-winning fiddlers—Kristan Harvey, Jeana Leslie, and Catriona Price—joined by the sensational Rory Matheson on piano, FARA deliver a sound that is bold, passionate, and unmistakably their own. Steeped in the centuries-old musical heritage of the Orkney Islands, FARA breathe new life into existing melodies while crafting original compositions that push the tradition forward. Their signature style weaves fiery fiddle sets with lyrical song-writing and three-part harmonies that soar with emotional intensity, creating performances that are as stirring as they are unforgettable.
