October music mix

A mix rather than a show for the coming week. It includes two tracks from the new and very good release by Karine Polwart and Dave Milligan, Still As Your Sleeping. Dave is best know for his work on the Scottish jazz scene over the last 25 years but he adds some wonderful piano arrangements to this collection of folk songs with Karine on vocals. 

Another new release is by Sarah McQuaid - The St Buryan Sessions being a live recording in a church during lockdown with just herself and her sound engineer present. It was filmed so check out her YouTube channel for the resulting footage. 

James J Turner - Watching You
Karine Polwart & Dave Milligan - Craigie Hill
Sarah McQuaid - Autumn Leaves
Rachel Surmanni - Put Me In The River
Smith & McLennan - Long Way Down
Band of Burns - Now Westlin Winds
Fairport Convention - Doctor of Physick
Michael Chapman - White House
The Rheingans Sisters - Urjen
Karine Polwart & Dave Milligan - Siccar Point
Northern Flyway - The Owls
Jamie Smith's Mabon - Summer's Lament


Or on Ginger Feather FM at 8pm every evening from Monday the 18th October.
