Cruinn

**Cruinn** is a Scottish folk trio known for their lush harmonies and soulful blend of traditional Gaelic music with contemporary arrangements. The group brings together three acclaimed artists: Gaelic singer **Kathleen MacInnes**, fiddler **Fiona MacAskill**, and singer-guitarist **Ewan Robertson** (of the band Manran). Formed in 2018, Cruinn celebrates Scotland’s rich musical heritage while adding modern flair through stripped-back, acoustic-driven performances. Their 2019 self-titled debut album and 2022 follow-up *Stòras* (Gaelic for “treasure”) highlight their knack for reimagining Gaelic songs and original compositions with warmth and authenticity.

Active in Scotland’s thriving folk scene, Cruinn has performed at festivals like Celtic Connections and shared stages with luminaries such as Julie Fowlis. Their music often centers on themes of nature, legacy, and Gaelic storytelling, delivered through MacInnes’ commanding vocals, MacAskill’s vibrant fiddle work, and Robertson’s intricate guitar lines. Perfect for fans of laid-back, rootsy folk with a timeless feel!
