About the event

One of the most talked-about bands in contemporary folk, Talisk have spent the last ten years ripping up the rulebook — and audiences across the world have come along for the ride. With over 15 million streams, 10,000 albums sold, and sold-out shows on five continents — from Glasgow to Tokyo, Paris to New York — alongside headline festival appearances the world over, the trio have built a devoted global following.

Armed with concertina, fiddle and guitar — and a sound far bigger than the sum of its parts — Mohsen Amini, Benedict Morris and Charlie Galloway have picked up a string of major awards, including from BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio Scotland and the BBC Alba Scots Trad Music Awards.

Celebrating a decade on the road in 2025, Talisk continue to push boundaries — musically, technically, and in how three people can completely command any stage. Their BBC One Hogmanay Show performances reached over a million viewers, whilst they’ve captivated tens of thousands live - from Glasgow’s OVO Hy-dro arena, to the vastest of festival sites across Europe, North America, and Australasia, and including Glas-tonbury in 2025.

Expect big energy, heavy tunes, and an all out celebration of an almighty 10 years - from one of contempo-rary Scottish folk’s most celebrated live acts.
