A Night in Orphir
Farewell to Irn-Bru
The Ardgour Seamstress
Sunday Morning


A Night in Orphir is a pipe march written in 2008 for the 50th Birthday party of my old friend and Amazing Spootiskerry Ceilidh Band bandmate, Alasdair Marwick who has lived in Orkney for many years. This was my first trip to Orkney – but not my last.

I was diagnosed as suffering from type 2 diabetes in July 2009. Judging from the symptoms I have probably been suffering from diabetes for several years. Farewell to Irn-Bru is a strathspey dedicated to diabetes sufferers everywhere!

The Ardgour Seamstress is Nick Turner – the brilliant sound engineer at Watercolour Music who guided us through the recording process seamlessly.

Sunday Morning is a tune in my head when I woke up on, surprisingly enough, a Sunday morning about a week before we went to the studio to record.
