Talented storyteller Phyll McBain and renowned singer Geordie Murison both hail from the Stonehaven area and together they will celebrate Steenhive through its greatest stories and songs.

For more than twenty years, Phyll McBain has been bringing stories to life — letting them breathe, grow, and change with every telling.  Storytelling is a living craft for Phyll, rooted in playfulness, community, and the rich Doric traditions of the North-east. Phyll is a registered storyteller with the Scottish Storytelling Centre, and collaboration has shaped much of her journey. She has been working closely with Doric Books under the banner of ABC Doric, taking storytelling sessions into care homes across the North-East and sharing the joy of Doric language, memory, and connection.

Geordie Murison was born and brought up on a farm at Fetteresso just outside Stonehaven, his father having moved there in 1935 from a farm in Buchan. His father had two older sisters who were a great source of stories about school and farm life before and after the First World War. The eldest one attended Whitehills School, New Deer while Gavin Greig was still headmaster. His mother's family (Robertson) were very musical and one of his earliest memories is of his granny sitting singing. His uncle played the fiddle and accordion and his older sister plays piano, guitar, and sings. A chance meeting with Jim Taylor, Tam Reid's nephew, in 1997, led to Geordie attending Aberdeen Branch TMSA sessions. There he met Tam and Anne Reid who encouraged him to enter competitions at festivals. This led to him being invited to festivals all over the country including London, Dorset, Dublin and Whitby as well as in Scotland.
