Jock Tamson’s Bairns - May You Never Lack A Scone

The reputation of Jack Tamson’s Bairns is so well established in Scotland and beyond that comment is almost superfluous! The band is made up of two outstanding singers in Rod Paterson (also guitar, trump) and John Croall (also bodhran, bones, whistles) along with Ian Hardie (fiddle, vocals), Derek Hoy (fiddles) and Norman Chalmers (concertinas, melodeon, moothie and whistles).

The Bairns have a very strong Scottish identity and perform mainly Scottish traditional songs and tunes, all with character and enjoyment - a few more recent compositions are also included. Highly regarded by all Scottish traditional musicians.
