Co-founder of Battlefield Band Alan Reid was in the vanguard of the exciting new Scottish folk bands that emerged around 1970 (including Silly Wizard, Tannahill Weavers and Ossian). His groundbreaking keyboard work helped cement the band’s reputation as one of the most innovative and influential folk bands of its generation. As well as driving instrumental sets the
band was noted for fostering songwriting with Brian McNeill, Davy Steele, Karine Polwart and Alan all contributing. His songs have been lauded for being rooted in the Scots tradition, rich in storytelling and strong on melody .
'One of Scottish Folk Music’s timeless treasures’, Christine Kydd, multi-award-winning singer and twice-nominated MG AlbaScots Singer of the Year, Christine was inducted in 2018 to the Scottish Traditional Music Hall of Fame. She first appeared in a duo with Janet Russell in the 80s and began exploring groundbreaking harmony work inspired by ‘Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares’ as well as marrying Joni Mitchell guitar tunings with traditional song. Since then she has toured in North America, Europe and beyond and supported major artistes including Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Guy Clark, Richard Thompson, Tannahill Weavers, Capercaillie and Christy Moore, Over the years she has also collaborated with top musicians, some of whom have featured in groups like Jock Tamson’s Bairns, Blazin’ Fiddles, and Shooglenifty.
With years of experience delighting audiences worldwide Alan and Christine bring in this new collaboration a beautifully curated repertoire of old and new songs, irresistible harmonies and a warmth of enjoyment in sharing the stage together.
