Bothy Film:

Our bothy film will be complete by October 2011. This is a collaboration with the National Theatre of Scotland, Urbancroft and the Citizens Theatre. We have been on 4 major walking/bothy trips and dropped off what we call 'bothy boxes' to 4 bothies: Culra, Coire Fionnaraich, Camban and White laggan. We will collect the findings, what you have contributed to the boxes, i.e. sketches, thoughts, poems, ideas, by September 2011 and create a film with music in response to these.

Dates for screening tbc.

The performance of music and video was in response to my arduous six-day walking/bothying trip through Knoydart, West Highlands of Scotland.

As well as producing and presenting music and visuals that were exciting and beautiful to hear and see, we hope that anyone who has taken part in such a physically exhausting trip related to our performance!

Through this performance and many more to follow, we want to help the promotion and maintenance of the Mountain Bothies, and help keep safe and alive the wilderness of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.

A selection of instrumental music and songs with a strong foundation in folk, classical and jazz styles.
(You can hear selected pieces from the concert on our 'music' page)
