That well known Celtic Chanteuse from the Celtic stronghold of Yorkshire, in Englandshire...........ah well, she's not a bad singer. Also, the further North you are in Englandshire, the easier Scots find it to understand the accent.

Young Drever is getting to be almost as good as his old man.


Kris Drever and 1st Kate Rusby set are continuous.


Lots of coming and going on stage, so I've just marked where artists appear for the first time.
