Big news… 20 years later, I am FINALLY going to record a 2nd solo album!
My very first release was my debut Hubcaps and Potholes. Since then I’ve recorded and self-released 6 more albums with some amazing musicians. BUT now it’s time to put on my big-girl pants and brave it alone again!
Yes… a full solo harp album, filled with my favourite tunes from Scotland and the Isle of Man, and of course a few newbies from my own pen is coming in 2026!
I NEED YOUR HELP!!
To make it happen, I’m launching a CROWDFUNDER (in conjunction with Creative Scotland Crowdmatch), which will let you pre-order the album and choose from some pretty awesome rewards. Your pledges will not only help fund the project (and we all know album-making costs are higher than ever while streaming returns are PITTANCE!), but they will also MAKE SURE I DO IT… because you’ll be official investors in the album!
The crowdfunder will run for 6 weeks and this is the fab bit: Creative Scotland will match your first pledge, up to £250. So if you pledge £10, they’ll give an additional £10. WIN!
REWARDS FOR YOU!
I have some fab rewards for you, including The Celtic Chill Hour, where I’ll record an hour of continuous chilled-out harp background music, in the style I play at my background music events. Just imagine you’re at one of the castles or grand houses I regularly play at and have a wee whisky whilst listening to this!
There’s also the chance to become an Executive Tune Namer & Sponsor, and choose the title for one of two album tunes featured on the album.
If you live in the UK or Isle of Man, you can also order a slab of my famous Scottish Tablet, made from my Granny-in-Glasgow’s recipe, and oh wow, it is ridiculously good!
And of course, there’s the actual CD early, signed, or as a digital download, and tune commissions are available too.
🚨A wee reminder: if you want a reward (album, tablet, Celtic Chill Hour, etc.) after pressing the red Donate button, don’t select a donation amount. Instead, scroll down and choose the specific reward you want.
really hope you’ll be able to help me bring this to life by pre-ordering and investing in the project.
