Music/festivals in northern Scotland

Hey mudcatters,

Do any of you have ideas for some music in northeastern Scotland between June 9-17? I heard of a festival in Keith the weekend of June 9. Has anyone been? Any of your recommendations will be more than I know on my own.

Many thanks,
aggy

Hello aggy

Keith Festival website is here. It has been my favourite festival for about 10 years (I might be slightly biased though - I have family connections!) It depends what you are looking for. There are sessions in the pubs during the day, an open air concert, competitions and then there are concerts at night. There's a good campsite, but accommodation will be getting a bit tight by now. I think the guests are quite good this year, especially The McCalmans and Hom Bru, and there's quite a bit of local talent around as well. It's worth a try if you are in the area.

Tracy

Wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy.
