The Carloways

30 October 2021

With all band members hailing from Scotland, THE CARLOWAYS take their love for Americana and fuse it with a rock core to create tunes that are infectiously catchy. 

Originally formed by a bunch of school friends, the group is  not only very well known within their local music scene in Perth,but they’ve since made their mark by touring extensively  all over Scotland, including multiple appearances at Belladrum Festival, Eden Court Inverness, Stornoway and as far south as Cornwall, 19 sold-out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2017… they even landed a touring gig with the SNP’s Alex Salmond after the SNP’s Tasmina Ahmed-Sheikh heard them play at a fundraising gig while she was the MP for Ochil and South Perthshire. 

In April 2018 the band recorded their debut E.P. with producer Paul McInally (Florence and The Machine, The Lapelles) at 45 A-Side Studios in Glasgow. This was released on July 1st 2018 and the track "Crawlin' Back" was used as Belladrum Festival's 2018 soundtrack.

The band have recorded their first ever album  – watch out for tracks from that in tonight’s concert. This is a band to watch!

We had not planned to present a hybrid festival, however that changed when one of our main authors tested positive for Covid. I greatly appreciated how the team worked with us to pivot and present remotely in part, making full use of your enhanced video conferencing equipment. As a result, we were able to deliver quite complex events with several elements all showing on screen simultaneously. The audio-visual quality was excellent, and our audiences were delighted that these events could still go ahead, in spite of Covid. The author in question was really pleased that he could join us on screen and remarked that he had not been so well supported in this way at any other festival.

I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for everyone's support in the planning and delivery of our Perthshire Artisan's event at Birnam Arts. The space was ideal, the food delicious and it was great to be back in real life!
