Catherine Rudie & the Kisses
https://catherinerudie.bandcamp.com/releases
From the North Coast of Scotland, Catherine Rudie was originally a bagpipe player and traditional Gaelic singer before switching to writing in English, developing a uniquely experimental approach to songwriting and arrangements. Recently she´s been picked by BBC3´s The Late Junction as ´One to Watch´ for 2019.
Her debut album The Mobius Kiss combines contemporary digital instruments such as the Roli Seaboard with unorthodox harmonies and traditional folk-style melodies. A special edition of the album in vinyl is available to pre-order now (https://qrates.com/projects/16739-the-mobius-kiss) and physical copies will be available to buy (for the first time!) on the night itself. Catherine will play with accompaniment from Barbara Bartz on violin and Chris Brambley on guitar.
