About This Event

For those seeking an authentic encounter with the beating heart of Scottish musical tradition, Skipinnish represents a rare opportunity to witness a quarter-century of artistry and cultural passion distilled into a single evening. Since their formation at Glasgow's prestigious Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama, this formidable ensemble has become custodians of a sound rooted deep within the Gàidhealtachd's soul, translating centuries of heritage into contemporary resonance. The City Varieties Music Hall's intimate yet distinguished setting promises an atmosphere crackling with energy, where traditional instrumentation and storytelling weave together to create something far greater than mere entertainment—a genuine communion between performers and audience. Skipinnish's ability to honour their roots whilst remaining utterly vital and alive makes this May performance an unmissable experience for anyone who believes live music possesses the power to transcend the everyday and connect us to something genuinely transcendent.
