    E25 : CHRIS STOUT AND CATRIONA MCKAY : on Riding The Wave of New Scottish Music
    Mar 23 2025

    You might have been lucky enough to see Chris and Catriona on any of their previous trips to Australia. As members of one of Scotland's most loved big fiddle bands, Fiddlers Bid, they first toured here 25 years ago, and they have returned regularly as a duo, as you will hear. It's a long journey from a tiny island with 60 inhabitants off the coast of Shetland, to the concert halls of the world, and here Catriona and Chris, incredible concert performers on harp and fiddle, talk with Neil about that journey. A big hit at CresFest 2 years ago, it's just great to welcome them back!
