About Me

LORI WATSON
Currently a PhD student at the RSAMD, Lori grew up in the Scottish Borders playing traditional music from a young age. A BBC Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year 2002 and 2003 Finalist, Lori has performed extensively throughout Britain and Europe. She has broadcast on radio, television and the internet throughout Europe and in the USA.
LORI WATSON THREE
Formed in October 2004, Lori Watson Three is an exciting young band celebrating the best of the Scottish tradition combined with their own contemporary sounds. Singer and fiddler Lori Watson is joined by Fiona Young and Innes Watson or Barry Reid to form a dynamic musical three-piece of fiddle and voice, piano accordion and guitar. Here is a fresh approach to some of the best music Scotland's heritage has to offer alongside Lori Watson's own wonderful compositions. Danny Award Winners at Celtic Connections 2005, this is a band that gets your feet stomping one minute, plays with heart-rending emotion the next and leaves the audience uplifted. Music of the highest order.
