Born in 1982 to north-east and West of Scotland parents. Eilidh’s family has for generations been musically active and she has inherited her parents and grandparents love of music. She started singing from an early age and it was at school that she began to perform on stage and in competitions. Her dad took Eilidh and her brothers to many performance events, particularly folk festivals and with her family’s north-east roots and passion for traditional music it was not long before Eilidh fell in love with traditional Scottish songs. Along-side singing, Eilidh has also appeared and acted in many musicals and stage shows.
When she was 17 Eilidh started to develop her own style and in the summer of 2003 Eilidh joined Angus Lyon, Ruaridh Campbell and Stevie Lawrence. However, Eilidh’s current line up of flute, guitar and cello along with some stunning harmonies has been met with great enthusiasm.
Eilidh loves to sing Scottish traditional songs – and is especially fond of those of Robert Burns, but her feel for and interpretation of lyrics shows when she switches to a more contemporary style.
At the beginning of 2004 Eilidh won a Danny Kyle Award at the Celtic Connections festival in Scotland and since then has had the honour of performing at many different fesitvals and clubs across the UK and Ireland.

Originally from the North-east, Eric is well known around the folk clubs and festivals and is highly regarded for his interpretation of song, both traditional and contemporary. With his Aberdeenshire accent and sensitive guitar accompaniment, he sings the work of many songwriters, but has a particular passion for the songs of Robert Burns

Pauline has been playing the flute for more years that she cares to remember. She has been playing in various classical groups for years and also in the good time ceilidh band 'The Roaring Mary'. She enjoys playing a variety of different styles and cites as influences whatever session she was last at. In her other life, she spreads health messages round schools.
