This Week's Show

Jon Palmer Acoustic Band - "One Fine Day" and  Skipinnish - "Steer by the Stars"

Skipinnish  are riding an ever-growing wave of popularity and the last 2 years have  been the biggest for the band since they began way back in 1999 when  co-founders Andrew Stevenson and Angus MacPhail joined forces.  With  increased numbers in the band from these early days and with the  addition of lead vocals and full back line, recent years have seen this  band hit the very top of the music scene in Scotland.  With hit after  hit of self penned songs and a strong mix of powerful bagpipe, fiddle  and accordion led tune sets, they encompass the very best of  contemporary Celtic Music.
