I will be 'appearing' at the Auld Hoose Festival (and then disappearing
for a further year) at 9.00pm on Saturday August 9th - till 10.30pm. The
venue is New Dalry House, a Jacobean house in Dalry, Edinburgh, near the
Haymarket railway station - the King Charles Music Room, a 90-seat venue
with a ceiling dating from 1661. Details of the entire month's events
and concerts can be got from:

The intention is to feature the three instruments shown ghosted; they
are Simpson of London c1770 English guittar, Hanna Hessler 1965
'gyterne' (or who knows what?), and Peter Cox 1999 six-course cittern.
I am erroneously down as 'Early Scottish Music' which is a misleading
title - actually, I'm doing mainly new and original songs and tunes
using my modern Lowdens (steel and nylon strung), and diverting to
glimpses of the past as it relates to this.
This is an Edinburgh Festival Fringe associated gig, so the admission is
a rather steep B#8, but the profits go to assure the future of the building.
