Fiona Ross

“Fiona is as fine a traditional singer as you will hear performing today. A concert by Fiona Ross is always a spellbinding, timeless affair that draws deeply on the wellspring of Scottish traditional song. We’ve been lucky enough to host her twice in 2019 and 2024 and we’re already looking forward to the next time!”

“Of all styles of folk music performance, an unaccompanied singer of traditional material must have a particular and rare skill to engage and hold an audience. Over many years, and most recently at this year’s National Folk Festival, I have watched and listened with delight as Fiona Ross accomplishes this effortlessly”

“Fiona’s fine tuneful voice has a wonderful traditional edge to it and while she can make a song her own she sings with absolute respect for the story, the setting and the people who have handed it down to her. It was a sad day for the Scottish folk scene when Fiona decamped to Australia but, thankfully, exile has done nothing to damage her voice! ”

“One of my favourite Scots singers, now very far away but sounding as true and beautiful as she did back in the day in The Oxford Bar”

“Fiona Ross is a very special Scots singer of great cultural importance”
