A right good rant in Kingussie
Ranting in Badenoch? Surely not! And in its gentle, temperate capital?
Yes, it’s true. There’s to be a right session in Kingussie.
Ahead of the release of their much-anticipated second album in 2016, Rant are taking to the road this month, with a series of acoustic winter concerts which include the strath.
Playing a section of winter-inspired pieces along with material from their debut album released in 2013, the concerts promise to get everyone in the festive spirit.
Nominated in the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards 2014, Rant is the meeting of four of Scotland’s finest fiddle players, two from the Shetland Islands and two from the Highlands.
Bethany Reid, Jenna Reid, Sarah-Jane Summers and Lauren MacColl join forces to create a sound rich and vibrant.
Since the release of their debut album Rant which won them critical acclaim in the form of a Herald Angel Award for outstanding performance across all the Edinburgh Festivals, the band has made major festival and concert appearances across the UK, Ireland and Scandinavia, and recorded strings for Julie Fowlis on her latest album Gach Sgeul.
Catch a rare visit at Talla nan Ros this Saturday (December 12) at 3pm (£10).
