Beth Malcolm

Beth Malcolm joins host Ewan Petrie for this weeks "The Tracks That Take Us Back".  Beth is currently one of the rising stars of the Scottish folk music scene. Her beautiful and distinct voice, alongside her undeniable songwriting talent, has firmly placed her as "one to watch" and a performer who will undoubtedly grow from strength to strength in the coming years. In 2019 she won the Edinburgh Folk Club's songwriting competition and followed this up by winning a "Danny" award at Celtic Connections in January 2020. An award that is reserved for only the most exciting emerging new talent.  Most recently she was named a winner of the Feis Rois and Nature Scot's, "In Tune with Nature" competition for her stunning song, "Leavin' Loch Leven". Beth then takes us on a whistle stop tour to some of Scotland's most stunning locations, as she shares her wonderful memories of the places that mean the most to her and the songs that bring these memories flooding back. From being a "puff-a-box" world champion to experiencing fuzzy headed sessions on the ferry back from Orkney, get ready for a journey filled with humour, variety and heart as we explore Beth Malcolm's choices on "The Tracks That Take Us Back".
