Ceitidh Mac blends the warming tones of the cello and soaring vocals to create a transformative sound that puts a progressive twist on the alt.folk genre. With her EP ‘I Reach for the Pen’ set for release on 27th August, Ceitidh Mac will be launching the EP with a UK Tour in November 2021 with her band. While the folk influence is prominent in her songs, it’s combined with a contemporary electronic edge and smokey style, embellished by unusual instrumentation; a folk/jazz crossover, aligning her with artists such as Jesca Hoop, Joni Mitchell and This is The Kit. 2021 has seen Ceitidh played by Mark Radcliffe on The Folk Show on BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 6 Music, local and national support from BBC Introducing, as well as being A-Listed by Amazing Radio. ‘Her live shows have that ineffable thing – call it a vibe, call it an atmosphere – that was very evident to anyone who saw her support Lankum at Sage Gateshead”- The Crack ‘Expertly written and arranged, a superb song filled with a resolute and reverberant spirit’ Fresh on the Net Please note that the basement stage is not accessible to all.
