VAMM

Catriona Macdonald (fiddle)
Patsy Reid (fiddle and viola)
Marit Falt (latmandola)

Contemporary tunes of Aidan O'Rourke and Jim Sutherland sit alongside 19th-century reels, as well as the group's own compositions.  VAMM's sound is led by the strength of melodic and harmonic beauty rather than their cultural backgrounds, combining intricate, lyrical arrangements and bass-thumping rhythms.
