We are delighted to welcome Jim Malcolm back to our stage - this time as a duo with his wife Susie Malcolm!

Jim Malcolm is the ultimate Scots troubadour. Travelling the world with his guitar, harmonicas, and engaging wit, he sings the traditional songs of Scotland and his own masterfully crafted songs in a style which is modern and accessible, yet utterly authentic. He is highly regarded as an interpreter of the songs of Robert Burns, and has been described as one of the finest singers in Scotland in any style. Though he now works solo, Jim was lead singer with the world-renowned and multi-award-winning Old Blind Dogs for eight years, a fantastic experience with some of Scotlands finest musicians, taking him to the most prestigious festivals in North America and around Europe.

Jim is known for his fine voice, excellent guitar & harmonica skills, a large dose of humor, well-told stories, and, not least of all, his great adaptations of traditional songs, as well excellent original songs.

Susie Malcolm is an award-winning singer with a special knowledge of the musical traditions of North East Scotland. She was the first woman ever to win a singing competition for Bothy Ballads, agricultural songs, and has been singing in folk clubs and at festivals around Scotland since her early 20s. She has one solo CD to her credit and has sung harmonies on ten of Jim's CDs. The couple's duo CD "Spring Will Follow" has received excellent reviews, and we look forward to hearing more. WIth their children having achieved the age of independance, Susie is able to join Jim on the road - This tour will be the first time Jim Malcolms US fans will have the chance to hear those harmonies performed live.
