Peter MacPherson is a Scottish singer-songwriter and pianist based in Inverness. Having graduated from the University of Aberdeen with a degree in music, Peter went on to study Gaelic language and song at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig on the Isle of Skye. In 2021, Peter won the Royal National Mod Silver pendant for Gaelic singing and the following year was a semi-finalist in the BBC Young Traditional Musician of the Year. His vocal delivery and piano playing are hugely appealing and garnering interest from audiences across Scotland and online.

Teya-Jean Bawden is a singer-songwriter from the Highlands. Nurtured by the Fèisean movement, Teya-Jean grew up on the trad scene before finding her sound in folk and indie music. In 2023 she was named by BBC Radio 3 as one of ten ‘Inspirational Women Using Music to Changes Lives’ for her work on the Fèis Rois Lullaby Project. She has previously supported The Blue Rose Code and The Little Unsaid, and has featured twice for Sofar Sounds Inverness. Teya-Jean is known for her finger-style playing coupled with lyrical musings on love, life and the careening in between.

The Wee Bar, Inverness

Join us at the Inverness Acoustic Music Club on Wednesday, 1 May 2024, for an intimate evening of stunning acoustic song with Jack Badcock at The Wee Bar, Inverness, starting at 7:30pm.

Singer and guitarist, Jack Badcock is a veteran performer, having toured extensively on four continents, predominantly as frontman and founding member of renowned world-folk band Dallahan.

A previous finalist in the BBC Young Traditional Musician of the Year Award, his 2021 EP, The Driftwood Project was nominated for Original Work of the Year at the BBC Scots Music Awards.

His solo material reveals his astute songcraft exploring human history, cosmology, personal experiences and profound questions all delivered with a musical sensitivity clearly influenced by American folk, funk and soul music as much as the traditional music from Britain and Ireland.

Rosie H Sullivan

Wednesday 5 June 2024

7:30 pm (doors open at 7 pm)

The Wee Bar, Inverness

Join us at the Inverness Acoustic Music Club on Wednesday, 5 June 2024, for an intimate evening of stunning songs with Rosie H Sullivan at The Wee Bar, Inverness, starting at 7:30pm.

Rosie H Sullivan, hailing from the Isle of Lewis, found solace and inspiration in music and nature from a young age. Influenced by artists like Joni Mitchell and Genesis, her songwriting journey began before her teens. In 2021, Sullivan made waves with her debut single 'So It Is', a raw and intimate track recorded in her garden, which has amassed over 600,000 streams on Spotify.

Her music draws from personal experiences, such as leaving Lewis and coping with heartbreak, as showcased in her debut EP '123 Degrees East'. Now, with her latest EP 'In My Nature', Sullivan, alongside producer Ross Hamilton, expands her sonic palette with lush arrangements and deeper textures, exploring themes of introspection and growth.

Sullivan's music bursts with colour and emotion, offering an intimate glimpse into her world. As she puts it, "The record represents who I am, what I am, through and through... It is in my nature to write these words and songs and hold them in my heart."
