A rare solo appearance from Jack Badcock, folk singer, songwriter and highly established guitarist. With his golden voice, driving guitar, honest and beautifully crafted songs, Jack's melting pot of influences add up to something truly special. Badcock and Ciarán Ryan (fiddle, mandolin and banjo) busked and performed their way around Edinburgh’s rich folk scene before forming Dallahan, who have now toured extensively all over the world.

Born in Dublin, he spent the first ten years in Kilkenny, Ireland, before moving to Leeds where he developed an interest in traditional music. Folk, traditional and indie greet eachother in Jacks performing. At sundown song nights, he will be debuting freshly pen songs inspired by life on the road, history and love.

Glasgow based folksinger, songwriter, ukulele player and guitarist Claire Hastings has made a name for herself on the folk scene since winning BBC Young Traditional Musician of the Year in 2015.

Since then she has toured throughout the UK, Europe and New Zealand as a solo artist, with The Claire Hastings Band and Top Floor Taivers, and has shared the stage with the likes of Lulu, Jamie Cullum, Deacon Blue and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.

Claire’s debut album ‘Between River and Railway’ was released in 2016 to critical acclaim. (Exquisite SONGLINES) Her much-awaited second album ‘Those Who Roam’, launched at Celtic Connections 2019, features traditional and original songs under the theme of journeys.

Claire has a strong ability to portray a story through song, and is known for her varied repertoire and ‘natural, effortless Scots voice’. (FRUK)
