Standard Theatre Seated
TRIP, born out of the vibrant Glasgow traditional music scene, unite the kindred Celtic traditions of Scotland, Ireland, Northumbria and the Isle of Man.
Their trademark sound is dynamic, driven and distinctive and celebrates the band’s roots in tradition, whilst showcasing a contemporary, cross-genre flare. Their tight-knit arrangements blend traditional melodies and self-penned tunes and songs to produce an exciting take on folk music.
The impressive line-up features 6 young musicians at the forefront of Glasgow’s traditional music scene, including BBC Young Traditional Musician of the year 2021 and members of FARA, GNOSS, The Canny Band and HEISK. TRIP are Isla Callister (Fiddle), Tiernan Courell (Flute/Whistle), Michael Biggins (Accordion), Alasdair MacKenzie (Guitar/Voice), Rory Matheson (Piano) and Craig Baxter (Bodhran).
At the heart of TRIP’s live performances is an infectious energy and camaraderie that has captivated audiences across Scotland and beyond at festivals such as Celtic Connections, Skye Live, Shetland Folk Festival and Festival Interceltique de Lorient.
Recent projects have also seen the band collaborate with the likes of Donald Shaw and The Scottish Dance Theatre and feature in the Celtic Connections 30th Anniversary Concert.
Their debut album ‘A Drop for Neptune’, which was released in 2022, was nominated for ‘Best Album of the Year’ at the Scots Trad Music Awards. Their continued success has garnered a nomination for ‘Folk Band of the Year’.
