Mix Heather Small & Julie Fowlis and you’ve got singer songwriter Ainsley Hamill, one of the UK’s leading and most diverse singers. We are thrilled to welcome her to Foyer Folk for the first time this March, accompanied by the familiar faces of Toby Shaer and Sam Kelly.
Ainsley has a long list of nods including the BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year Finalist and Gaelic Singer of the Year Finalist at the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards. She represented Scotland at Eurovision in Gothenburg and has appeared at folk festivals the world over, including The Festival Interceltique de Lorient and Celtic Connections for the last 10 years. In 2021 Ainsley released her debut feature album ‘Not Just Ship Land’. Produced by BBC composer Malcolm Lindsay, ‘Not Just Ship Land’, was inspired by the surroundings and unsung heroes of Govan and Glasgow.
Hailing from the West Coast of Scotland, Ainsley specialises in song writing and songs in Scottish Gaelic and English. Her love of Gaelic song was nurtured whilst studying at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and Trad roots are close to her heart.
