Celtic Music Radio will once again be covering Perthshire Amber – The Dougie MacLean Festival.

This is the 9th year of the Perthshire Amber Festival and promises once again to be full of wonderful concerts featuring the finest of Scotland’s musical talent as well as some international guests.

The Perthshire venues are as special as ever, ranging from the prestigious Perth Concert Hall to town halls and tiny village halls; from atmospheric castles to the historic Dunkeld Cathedral and even including an iron age Crannog on Loch Tay and Scotland’s smallest single malt Scotch Whisky distillery at Edradour, near Pitlochry. There are 18 venues in all in 2013.

Celtic Music Radio OB producer Ross Macfadyen says: “Perthshire Amber is the next biggest high profile event outside of Celtic Connections and it’s an honour to be invited back again”.

The planned Celtic Music Radio live broadcast schedule with a base at Amber Central at The Royal Dunkeld Hotel, Dunkeld is as follows:

Saturday 26 October: 12noon – 5.00pm Open Mic Stage
Sunday 27 October: 12noon – 5.00pm Open Mic Stage
Monday 28 October – Thursday 31 October 5.00 – 7.00pm Cabaret Amber Concert
Saturday 2 November: 12noon – 5.00pm Open Mic Stage.

Join in the fun from 12 noon this Saturday!
