Bio

Dick Gaughan (Richard Peter Gaughan )(b. 17 May 1948) is an influential Scottish musician, singer, and songwriter. He has recorded with Boys of the Lough and Five Hand Reel, and has a number of fine albums of his own. He took up the guitar at the age of seven. Although he has later sung in Scottish Gaelic, he is not fluent in that language; he has a powerful command of his native Scots. He began by singing in Edinburgh folk clubs and became a professional musician in 1970.
