Kris Drever with Chris Stout

Kris Drever and Chris Stout are icons of the Scottish folk scene and two of the most distinctive contemporary voices to emerge from it in the last quarter century. Both come from the Northern Isles (Kris from Orkney and Chris from Shetland) and represent the elemental power of those identities in the music they inhabit.

Kris is a guitarist, singer and founder member of the trio Lau. He’s a multi award-winning singer-songwriter and has played and written with a galaxy of stars including Eddi Reader, Roddy Woomble, Mark Knopfler, Kate Rusby, Jack Bruce and Karine Polwart. Chris is a virtuoso violinist, viola player and composer, founder member of the legendary Shetland band Fiddlers' Bid and long-time collaborator of the genius harpist Catriona McKay.

In Glasgow in 2019 they became near-neighbours and began meeting up regularly to play music together. They found a sound of great emotional power in these get-togethers and now they’ve decided to share the experience with a wider audience. Come and hear songs and tunes you know and some you don’t, shining through the unique prism of these two hugely talented artists.
