Subject: RE: Ewan McLennan in Twickenham Sun Feb 20th
Thanks, guest....wasn't last night though. It's TONIGHT at the Cabbage Patch, Twickenham (Sunday) 8pm

Here's the blurb....

Every now and again Scotland produces a male singer with real class. Archie Fisher, Ian Campbell, Dick Gaughan spring to mind. Now there's Ewan McLennan a young folk artist who has been making headlines over the last couple of years, performing festivals, clubs, and concert halls across the country. He appeared at TwickFolk last year on a shared bill with Sam Carter. Ewan's debut album for Fellside Records 'Rags And Robes' has recently been released and made number 4 in Mojo magazine's top 10 folk albums of the year – a significant achievement undermines his status as 'one to watch' on the UK folk scene. Ewan has also been recently won the 'Horizon Award' at the BBC 2011 Folk Awards

'I was completely and utterly bowled over by Ewan's music. One of the most exciting new voices I've heard in years ¬ deep commitment and understanding is the bedrock and there's a sure touch here that runs through the music like iron.' Mike Harding
