About Scotland On Tour: Mairi Campbell - CANCELLED
A pioneer of Scottish music who draws inspiration from her own life and cultural concerns, Mairi Campbell has a number of musical accolades to her name, including the 2018 Inspiration Award, alongside being included in the Scottish Traditional Music Hall of Fame.
Having been referred to as a national treasure of Scotland, Campbell skilfully uses beautiful melodies and lyrics to deal with both serious and lighthearted subject matter, and her enticingly warm voice appeals to listeners of all ages and backgrounds.
Mairi Campbell said: “It will be great to play at The National Piping Centre. Being part of Scotland on Tour, and putting on these concerts in lesser known venues, is a real pleasure and it will be very special to get to know new spaces with their own acoustics and unique audiences. It’s great to see fantastic venues such as this utilised by Scotland on Tour and I can’t wait to get out and meet the community of Glasgow this November.”
Scotland on Tour will take place over a period of 12 months between April 2022 and 2023.
Helen Urquhart, Marketing and Piping Events Manager at The National Piping Centre, said: “We are delighted to be hosting some fantastic gigs as part of Scotland on Tour. We are looking forward to welcoming Mairi Campbell to The National Piping Centre, and we can't wait to hear her show featuring song, story and improvisation on voice and viola.”
Scotland on Tour supports the creation of hundreds of concerts and performances at much-loved arts centres, town halls and community venues across Scotland. More than 120 artists are set to perform at more than 100 venues across the country as part of the initiative.
The project, which has been created and managed by Active Events, was made possible by £750,000 of Scottish Government backing and will focus on increasing the number of opportunities to showcase and enjoy live music, while bringing exciting acts to the doorstep of city, towns, villages and rural communities.
The year-long Scotland on Tour bill includes both emerging and established artists with genre-spanning acts appearing across the breadth and width of the country, with rock, pop, jazz, classical, folk, trad and acoustic genres all being showcased.
Tickets for these and a raft of other shows are on sale now at www.scotlandontour.com
