With three acclaimed albums under their belt, RANT remains at the forefront of the Scottish fiddle scene.
The meeting of four of the country’s finest players, the quartet use just their fiddles to weave a tapestry of melodies, textures, layers and sounds. Bethany Reid from Shetland, Anna Massie and Lauren MacColl from the Highland peninsula of the Black Isle, and Gillian Frame from Arran join forces to showcase the combined resonance of their instruments with repertoire unearthed from both old collections and their own contemporary writing.
RANT creates a sound which is both spacious and lush, yet retaining all the earthy bite and spark of a traditional Scottish fiddle player. Their performances reflect years of honing their sound together and their love for the music of their respective home regions through their writing, repertoire and stories
