Award winning Scottish folk singer-songwriter Karine Polwart’s simple but evocative style has established her as one of the genre’s most respected artists.

Takes the heart to places few singers even know exist” Word

Karine Polwart draws from folk music’s long tradition while keeping pace with the ceaselessly changing times. Her talent for crafting unique, enduring melodies, her gift for saying just enough without overstating her case, the range and dynamism of her arrangements, all come together in songs of powerful contemporary relevance. She also has the purest and most approachable of singing voices, drawing the listener towards her in the same way one might lean towards a late night tale by the fireside. We invite you to enjoy a night in the company of this rare and fine talent.

This event will begin at 8pm but our Picturehouse Cafe Bar is open from 5.30pm for delicious food and drinks.
