Hot on the heels of her recent tour as a guest with the star-studded Transatlantic Sessions, multi-award winning Scottish singer-songwriter, Siobhan Miller is set to embark upon a UK tour throughout May.
Accompanied by her band, Siobhan will play shows from Worcestershire to Orkney, taking in gigs in Glasgow, Aberdeen, Birmingham, Manchester, Sheffield and many more.
Siobhan’s headline tour follows her 14,000-capacity run as a featured vocalist in Transatlantic Sessions, where she dueted with Irish legend, Paul Brady, and multiple Grammy-winner, Sarah Jarosz – backed by the all-star house band, under the musical directorship of Jerry Douglas and Aly Bain.
A richly celebrated Scottish folk singer and songwriter in her own right, Siobhan Miller’s soulful and stirring renewal of traditional song has won her the BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for Best Traditional Track, and the BBC Alba Scots Trad Music Awards’ Scots Singer of the Year an unprecedented four times.
Siobhan’s fourth solo album, All is Not Forgotten, was released to critical acclaim in 2020, achieving radio play and interviews on BBC Radio 2, 3 and 4 during the height of the first national lockdown – with no accompanying touring. A return to her acoustic roots, and combining her love of traditional songs with original material, the album develops many of the themes and ideas from previous releases Mercury (2018), Strata (2017) and Flight of Time (2015).
Siobhan’s acclaimed version of Andy M. Stewart’s much-loved song, The Ramblin’ Rover, featured on her sophomore album, has amassed over 1.5million streams on Spotify – firmly establishing the track as an audience favourite!
Alongside her extensive solo touring throughout Europe, Australia, the USA and Canada, Siobhan has collaborated with many of Scotland’s top musicians, including Eddi Reader, with whom she has toured widely and formed a close musical bond – supporting, singing alongside and making guest appearances on each other’s albums. She has also worked with the National Theatre of Scotland, spent a season on Broadway, and has featured on US/UK TV drama, Outlander.
Whilst also taking in festival appearances at the Orkney Folk Festival, Perth Festival of the Arts, and Skye Live, Siobhan’s May tour will return to a number of cities that she has performed with large ensembles, such as Transatlantic Sessions – but now treating audiences to two full sets of material spanning her solo career.
