Bidh Ceòl ’s Craic a’ cur fàilte air an luchd-ciùil Mike is Solveig gu Ceòl ’s Craic @ Celtic Music Radio Diluain 4 Cèitean eadar 6 is 7f. Tha sinn a’ coimhead air adhart gu mòr ri seisean-ciùil beò bho Mike Hastings agus Solveig Askvik, dithis a tha air a bhith aig crìdhe coimhearsnachd psych-folk Ghlaschu thairis air an deichead bliadhna mu dheireadh. Tha iad gu math aithnichte aig luchd-leantainn ciùil ann an Glaschu bhon obair aca le còmhlan-ciùil an leithid Mike Heron Band, Trembling Bells, Lucky Luke agus na Pendulums. ‘S e an càirdeas eadar cluich giotair ioma-lùbach Mike agus sgil Solveig air an fhidheall a tha a’ dèanamh ceòl Mike is Solveig cho tarraingeach, a’ cur an cèill ann an òrain sgeulachdan grìnn, annasach le stoidhle ceòlmhor a tha a’ toirt urram dha traidisean ceòl duthchais na h-Alba.

 

Ceòl ’s Craic will be welcoming Mike and Solveig to Ceòl ’s Craic @ Celtic Music Radio on Monday 4 May between 6 and 7pm. We’re looking forward to a live music session from Mike Hastings and Solveig Askvik, a duo who have been key players in the Glasgow psych-folk scene for the past decade or so. They are well known to Glasgow music fans from their involvement in the Mike Heron band, Trembling Bells, Lucky Luke and the Pendulums. Mike’s intrincate fingerpicked guitar interweave with Solveig’s sliding fiddle lines in finely-crafted tales recalling the best of the Scottish folk tradition. Influenced by the likes of The Incredible String Band, early John Martyn, Ivor Cutler and Moondog, Mike & Solveig have been gaining much praise around the UK.
