Zetor in the Kailyard

Zetor in the Kailyard are a Scottish Folk Duo. The band features Roddy Johnston on fiddle, pipes, vocals, guitar and percussion, and Kate Badcock on flute, piano, alto sax and backing vocals. 

 

Zetor in the Kailyard are known for their performances that combine traditional music with live looping, creating a full and energetic sound. With a highly eclectic repertoire and richly textured harmonies and rhythm they have reinterpreted traditional tunes and ballads from Scotland, Ireland and North America, drawing on sounds and inspiration from around the world.

 

Their debut album, Collateral, explores one of the most important issues of modern times, that of migration, through the vast wealth of traditional songs and tunes that reflect on this.
