Perthshire Amber - The Dougie MacLean Festival
Various Venues in Highland Perthshire
Dougie MacLean is "Scotland's pre-eminent singer-songwriter
and a national musical treasure" (Performing Songwriter USA) who
has developed a unique festival which shares with visitors from
Scotland and abroad his native and very beautiful scenery, as
well as his music and musical friends. This 10 day festival
features international and Scottish musicians of the highest
calibre. The concerts are staged in a variety of wonderful
venues from an iron age crannog on Loch Tay, to historic Blair
Castle and Castle Menzies and atmospheric Dunkeld Cathedral to
the Festival Theatre in Pitlochry. Yet the Festival is so much
more than the music concerts. There are workshops, walks, talks,
open mic sessions and a Young Songwriter’s Showcase as well as
Cabaret Amber (free early evening music). It's also a
celebration of the history and culture of this unique county in
the heart of Scotland, at a time of the year when Perthshire is
ablaze with rich autumnal colour. Contact - Butterstone
