Tartan Heart Fringe dates at My Space home The best 2 weeks to visit the Highlands The Belladrum Festival Home Site  Grass Roots UK Festival Award 2008 For Belladrum Festival
Thanks to every one who rolled up there sleeves for the fringe and Belladrum, The Tartan Heart Fringe and The Potting Shed Stage 2008 in the run up, on what turned out to be an award filled year. I couldn't think of a better award to be recognised for.  Often the best small festivals spring from an organic labour of love and a long-time dream which has been shared by thousands more. These festivals should be celebrated, not just for the courage and vision shown by their organisers, but also because they never forget where they've come from, supporting their local communities and new music along the way whilst retaining an independent spirit and resisting the allure of commercial sponsorship. http://www.festivalawards.comMuch of that spirit of Belladrum and what brought this attention is the good work you guys do for your community and for us, so thanks again looking forward to 2009. The Tartan Heart Fringe has a record of being first to find talent and bring them to the Highlands IE Seasick Steve, Mia Riddle, Blou Robberto Cassani. The proverbial "Hard Acts To Follow" Tune Into Nevis Radio at www.nevisradio.co.uk for Fringe and Potting Shed stage Belladrum information as it happen,  The Medicine Show Will have its own Stage again at Belladrum The Potting Shed Stage offers an area where artists and festival goers can relax and socialise together, with music happening spontaneously and organically, under the supervision of Rob Ellen of The Medicine Show.

Eliza Gilkyson Trio http://www.elizagilkyson.comEliza played her first ever UK shows in the Highlands, so its fitting that she brings her Festival Combo to Scotland for the first time to open up the Tartan Heart Fringe for this exclusive Scottish Show. Austin-based singer/songwriter Eliza Gilkyson grew up in Los Angeles, the daughter of successful songwriter Terry Gilkyson. Her rather musical upbringing included demos that Eliza recorded of her father's work, as well as other musical ventures. She moved to New Mexico in the late 1960s, where she began performing and touring regionally with the Ark Band. She later moved to Europe to work with composer Andreas Vollenweider. Returning to the States in the late 1990s, Gilkyson began releasing a series of critically acclaimed solo albums. She also started her own label (Realiza Records) in 1999. A year later, she released an album on Red House Records, for whom she's recorded ever since. In all, Gilkyson has released 14 CDs. She was inducted into the Austin Music Hall of Fame. Her album Land of Milk and Honey was nominated for a Grammy Award.  Tim Scott takes his place among those who have come before him—the ones who supported and guided him on his journey.—Dan Fogelberg, John Lennon, George Harrison and Warren Zevon. The lyrics say it all, There’s a common thread between us though we often stumble, we rarely fall.” That common thread is the ability to take a handful of words, a few chords and a shitload of honesty to grab people right where they live.  Tickets £10 in advance £12 at door if any are left) Click photo of The Hall for accomidation and all info on Roy Bridge and how to get there  |

The Tartan Heart Fringe and Belladrum Potting Shed Stage is sponsored by Square Wheels Cycles of Strathpeffer  "Belladrum is sometimes described as the "Glastonbury of the North", but it is much broader in its appeal. People from all social and class backgrounds are here and you quite literally see three generations of the same family all jumping to the same infectious rhythms. It is becoming a real focus of community cohesion and not a little pride among the thousands who gather here that they can stage something like this in the Highlands. The food is pretty damn good too". Ian MacWhirter The HeraldMedicine Music have been involved in promotion publicity and booking the Belladrum Festival from Year one. Medicine Music book the roots acts across all stages and organise the potting shed stage and the belladrum fringe, and organise the radio support for the event. We extend congratulations to all who work on the festival and to our friends and coleges who help to put the Fringe and Potting Shed Stage together. Belladrum Festival Home Tartan Heart Fringe Home |
