Recorded entirely by young musicians from the Highlands, with the help of Capercaillie fiddle player Charlie McKerron.

Fèis Rois, established for 20 years as the main development organisation for promotion of Gaelic music and culture in Ross and Cromarty, has gathered 47 of the finest teenage solo musicians and groups together on a compilation album of traditional and contemporary Highland music.

Among the talented young Highlanders featured on the album are rising fiddle star Graham MacKenzie from Inverness, the youngest ever winner of a Celtic Connections Danny Kyle Award, and Dingwall’s own Katie MacKenzie, currently studying Scottish Music at the RSAMD in Glasgow, leads the way with Gaelic song.

The album also features music from Fèis Rois’ sell out Celtic Connections concert in 2005 with a special guest appearance from Lauren MacColl, former Fèis Rois participant and winner of the BBC Young Folk Musician of the Year.

"This CD showcases the wealth of talent coming through today and leaves me with no worries about the future of Scottish traditional music." (Charlie McKerron)

"This is a vibrant and exciting album which captures a taste of everything Fèis Rois has to give. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate our 20th Anniversary than with this heart warming album. All the participants have benefited greatly from the recording experience." (Rita Hunter, Fèis Rois manager)
