Hearth Fire Sessions
Part of Edinburgh Tradfest 2024
(Thu 9 May: 7:30pm)
Welcome to an eclectic night of ancient myth, contemporary storytelling, post-folk music, and physical artistry. Steeped in the traditions of Scottish storytelling, we evoke the warm atmosphere of peat-smoked hearthsides and ceilidh house revelry, presenting timeless motifs relevant to a discerning modern audience.
Join host Dougie Mackay as he invites a different selection of Scotland’s finest storytellers, songwriters, musicians, and performing artists to each bi-monthly Hearth Fire Session to create an innovative showcase of Scotland’s contemporary culture. In May, Dougie is joined by whistle and wooden flute player, guitarist and singer-songwriter Sam Gillespie, storyteller and tradition bearer Jess Smith and basketweaver Katie Warner.
A booking fee of £1.50 is charged per transaction. If you are a Storytelling Centre Supporter, please add a full price ticket to the basket and your discount will apply automatically at checkout.
