Rambling Folk

BG McDaid’s new album 'Folk’n Trouble' gets released this Friday. I’ll be playing a few tracks from it and having a chat with Brian on this week's Rambling Folk.

There will be a strong Glasgow theme running throughout the show with music from Billy Jackson, Findlay Napierr, Iain MacKintosh, Mairi MacMillan and Jim Thornton.

We’ll also celebrate the Autumn Equinox with something from Erastes Music album ‘The Wheel Of The Year”

I hope you can join me
