On Ceòl ’s Craic on Monday 19 May at 6.00pm special guest is Kim Carnie.

This young singer, a former pupil of The National Centre of Excellence in Traditional Music in Plockton, hails from Oban, Argyll.

She has performed with her own bands and with Feis Rois’ National Trad Trail at festivals throughout the UK including the Cambridge Folk Festival, Best of the West Festival, Hebridean Celtic Festival and Glasgow’s Celtic Connections.

With her former band, Kim was short-listed as a semi-finalist for the BBC Radio 2 Young Folk Awards 2011.

She went on to become a member, and lead singer, of John Saich’s ‘MOVE’ project.

Although predominately a Gaelic singer, Kim has recently started to perform her own material alongside guitarist Innes White from Dingwall and fiddler Eric Linklater from Orkney.

‘S ann às an Oban ann an Earra-ghaidheal a tha an seinneadair òg Kim Carnie a bhios anns an stiùideo air prògram Cheòl ’s Craic Diluain 19 an Cèitean. Bha i na h-oileanach ciùil aig Ard-sgoil a’ Phluic agus bho dh’fhàg i an sgoil tha i air seinn còmhla ris na còmhlain-chiùil aice fhèin agus le ‘Trad Trail’ Nàiseanta Fèis Rois aig fèillean air feadh Bhreatainn. Ged is ‘s ann sa Ghàidhlig a bhios i a’ seinn mar as trice bho chionn ghoirid tha i air tòiseachadh a’ cleachdadh òrain sgrìobhte leatha fhèin còmhla ris an dithis luchd-ciuil Innes White à Inbhir Pheofharain agus Eric Linklater à Arcaibh.
