About Me

Beth Burns Duo are an Edinburgh based piano/vocal covers band featuring Iain Munro on piano/keyboards and Beth Burns on vocals. We play a wide selection of songs and styles, from blues and jazz to 60's/70's & contemporary rock and pop, taking in country, soul and folk along the way, some well known & some not so well known songs, all adapted for piano & vocal giving a distinctive sound of our own. We are also working on some original material which will be introduced to our live set in the coming months.
