Orkney Folk Festival
One of Scotland’s finest and most acclaimed songwriters, Orcadian Kris Drever returns to the festival fronting his own band - featuring Louis Abbott, Euan Burton and Rachel Lightbody - coinciding with the 2023 release of an expansive career-spanning compilation album of his work to date.
