"Wildscreen Scotland: Julie Fowlis performs An Ron/Ann an Caolas Ododrum"

I note that "Yundah" has a different tune here, to that which I learnt many many years ago from Frankie Armstrong, but re the beautiful Gaelic singer : "Fowlis grew up on North Uist, an island in the Outer Hebrides, in a Gaelic-speaking community. Her mother was a Gaelic-speaking islander from a family of fishermen and crofters which originated on the remote island of Heisgeir,[3] while her father hailed originally from Pitlochry on mainland Scotland."
