Om arrangementet
Ross Couper frå Shetland/Skottland og Tom Oakes frå England/Skottland utgjer ein duo med fele og gitar. Duoen har djupe røter i skotsk/irske musikktradisjonar, men med ein vital moderne vri. Her kan du forventa deg ein dynamisk miks av kraft og varheit med både varme og humor – ofte med eit opprømt publikum som resultat.
