Michael McGovern and Grayling
Experience an evening of deeply poetic songwriting and evolving folk music with Glasgow’s own Michael McGovern, celebrating a rich new chapter in his sound.
McGovern, whose work has been praised by folk legends and broadcasters alike, is known for his signature style: intricate fingerpicked nylon-string guitar work, expansive vocal harmonies, and a lyricism that draws on literary giants from Leonard Cohen to T.S. Eliot. While his acclaimed debut album embraced the intimate folk ballad, his latest project, Thin White Road, takes a confident step forward, expanding his roots with full-band arrangements and touches of saxophone and strings. It's a sound that is both deeply emotional and richly arranged, cementing his place as one of the most compelling new voices in contemporary folk.
Opening the show is the equally captivating Grayling. Known for her gorgeous, country and Americana-tinged songs, Grayling's music is cathartic, reflective, and delivered with a distinctive blend of raw energy and melodic grace.
