The Moorgate Sessions:
Come join us for an intimate evening with Malin Lewis and Marit Falt at the Gregson Arts & Community Centre. These talented musicians will be performing live, showcasing their unique blend of trad west coast scottish tunes with a deft scandinavian touch from spectacular musician Marit Falt.. Don't miss out on this special event!
Innovator, award winning, multi-instrumentalist Malin Lewis melds Scottish West coast tradition with a newly invented, self-made bagpipe alongside acclaimed
Scandinavian Låtmandola player Marit Fält.
Together they weave hair tingling, philosophical and dance inducing melodies with European folk traditions, queerness and the universe. Having toured across the UK, Canada and Europe, Malin released their celebrated debut album 'Halocline' in May 2024 on Hudson Records.
A Halocline is a visible layer that forms between salt and fresh water and is home to a unique microbial ecosystem. Malin's unique timbre is born from the deep connection that comes from making and composing for their own instrument. Their one of a kind two-octave Smallpipe creates a whole new world of sound, captivating audiences at every opportunity.
Recently Malin has been recording music for The Outrun starring Saoirse Ronan, composing for contemporary dance and theatre and has been learning the tradition of the extinct Finnish Bagpipes.
Born of Swedish and Norwegian parents, Marit grew up playing a myriad of instruments from Låtmandola to Swedish bagpipes. She graduated from Newcastle University before going on to perform across the country with some of the folk world's most exciting bands.
