Fiddler Louise Bichan hails from Orkney, a group of islands in the north of Scotland, and plays and writes folk and traditional Scottish music.

Join her as she embarks on a unique musical and sentimental journey, between her native northern Scottish Isles and coast-to-coast Canada, in the foodsteps of her late paternal grandmother Margaret, née Tait (1925-2008). With a dilemma of the heart to solve, Tait, herself a beautiful singer, spent six months in Canada in 1950, before returning to Orkney to wed.

Now carving her own path in New England’s vibrant music scene, Bichan is set to release her second record, The Lost Summer this spring. She takes to the road with Conor Hearn playing guitar, Brendan Hearn on cello, and Ethan Setiawan on mandolins, to present an evening of lively fiddle tunes from Scotland and beyond, weaving through stories of connection, to people, nature, the past and the possibility of the future.
