On Thursday July 17 one of Scotland's finest trad and folk musicians, Kris Drever, will be performing on the Beach Stage. Andy first saw Kris as a member of the dazzling neo-trad trio Lau, and greatly admires his guitar playing and songwriting, so can't wait to introduce him to the Harrison audience. Kris originally comes from Hrossey in the Orkney Islands. His sound is rooted in the earthy and hypnotic rhythms of much older music, but there’s a sophistication to both the lyricism and the instrumentalism which places him skilfully in the present. He has worked with many excellent musicians, including Jack Bruce, Eddi Reader, Mark Knopfler, Jerry Douglas and Roddy Woomble, and is a member of the beautiful multi-media project Spell Songs: The Lost Words.
