Gnoss
Gnoss’ signature sound is a rich tapestry of acoustic layers; outstanding musicianship, deep traditional roots and contemporary compositional flair combined to create songs and tunes brimming with character.
Double Scots Trad Award nominees, the boys have built a following through their forward-thinking take on traditional music and the unique warmth of their live shows. Proven most recently by their two sold out appearances at the world-famous Celtic Connections festival - first as hosts of ‘Orkney Folk: The Gathering’ in 2019, then by their headline debut the following year.
Their 2019 11-track album Drawn From Deep Water was met with widespread praise for its exemplary interplay, nakedly emotional playing, and well-chosen material, and brought Gnoss to entranced audiences across Europe and the length and breadth of the UK.
With their highly anticipated new album The Light of The Moon on the horizon, Gnoss’ dedication to their craft places them firmly at the forefront of what’s happening in Scottish folk today.
