Kate in the Kettle

Kate in the Kettle is the name given to a shape-shifting line-up of international musicians, predominately led by Scottish folk singer, fiddler and composer, Kate Young. In 2014 her debut album, 'Swimmings of the Head' was received with high acclaim from Songlines magazine, The Guardian UK and MOJO "enthralling" (each with four stars) and proved as a celebration of innovation and the weaving together of similarities between Scottish, Scandinavian and Indian traditions.

2016 sees Kate joined by an exciting new line-up with fresh songs arranged for string quintet. The stellar musicians draw upon their diverse and rich musicianship which has been cultivated through meeting in the "Ethno" movement. Each musician while stylistically defined in their own right, come together to create a quite unique performance.
