- **Event Name**: Charlie Mckerron & Friends
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 02 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: Capercaillie and Session A9 fiddle player, Charlie Mckerron is joined by his friends Ross Ainslie, Marc Clement and Tim Edey in a series of gigs to celebrate another very special friend of his.

“My faithful friend, my fiddle, turns 150 years old this year. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said that the best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles, and I think he may well have been right about that”, says Charlie. The fiddle came to him after his original instrument was stolen from the Capercaillie van whilst on tour in the late 1980’s. “The fiddle has an interesting background and it has been part of my musical career over the last 30 years, and hopefully will be for a few more”.

Ross Ainslie, Tim Edey and Marc Clement bring a world music backdrop to many of Mckerron’s compositions. There is a musical soulfulness, and the fury of the up tempo madness and incredible improvisation make each night a different experience. They continually push and challenge each other, “I love the improvisation thrown in, there is freedom within the music”, comments Ross Ainslie.

You can expect a night of amazing music and entertainment from these award-winning musicians. Their virtuosity and the sheer joy of performing together will always shine.
