Màiri Morrison & Alasdair Roberts - Remembered in Exile

Advertisement

Precise time TBC but this will be a matinee show.

Màiri Morrison and Alasdair Roberts bring their new album, Remembered in Exile, to Berwick.

Drawing on the pioneering work of Nova Scotian folklorist Helen Creighton (1899-1989), who collected traditional songs on Canada’s eastern seaboard, Remembered in Exile features songs with Scottish roots: musical artefacts of the westward
journey undertaken by Scots as they migrated to Canada from the 1600s to the mid-1800s.

A native of the Isle of Lewis, Màiri takes the lead on a handful of Gaelic language songs, mostly collected in Cape Breton, while Alasdair leads on some Canadian variants of Scots ballads.

Tickets will be available very soon from The Straw Yard.
