Scotch Mist
The mountains, the sea, the forests and wild-life of the Aquitaine and of Scotland are akin.
Scotch Mist translates this affinity into music and dance blending in a miscellany of musical talents and integrating it with traditions from horizons oceans apart.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Scotch Mist began life in 1990 as a trio based in Bordeaux. The early days saw the band diffuse its repertoire of Scottish and Irish music all over the South-West of France.
Time passing has seen the group playing in a host of venues that range from the extremely modest to the fairly prestigious, including several festivals both in France and abroad. Over the years various musicians of diverse horizons have come in to lend their talents.
Up till now we have self-produced a live cassette and two mini CDs, and been released, alongside The Tannahill Weavers, on a compilation C.D. in Italy. We've also taken in short tours of Scotland, Ireland and Portugal.
A new complete album is on it's way.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
As much as possible and we're always looking for gigs if your interested.
