Young Trad at 20: Where Are They Now with Paddy Callaghan

Bruce chats to Jack Smedley about 10 years of Rura & their brand new live album to mark the anniversary & Paddy Callaghan joins him for the next instalment of our Young Trad series

The final day of 2020’s Celtic Connections festival in Glasgow was a milestone for distinctive contemporary folk four-piece Rura, who celebrated their 10th anniversary with a very special gig delving into their back catalogue and welcoming friends and past collaborators to the stage. This sensational gig was captured and bottled in the form of their brand new release - Live at the Old Fruitmarket. Jack Smedley from the band joins Bruce to chat about a decade of music with Rura and we hear music from the live album.

Plus, Bruce continues the Young Trad at 20: Where Are They Now series - celebrating 20 years of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year Award by getting to know each of its previous winners. This week the first accordionist to win the competition, Paddy Callaghan, joins Bruce in conversation - sharing memories of the night, how the competition has affected his career as a professional musician and his musical influences along the way.
