For the very best in traditional music, join Gary Innes for Take the Floor. We have a fantastic band session for you from Matthew Maclennan and his band. We are then joined by our guest: mulit-instrumentalist Michael Biggins. Michael performs TRIP, The Canny Band and many other bands besides, and was the winner of 成人快手 Radio Scotland's Young Traditional Musician of the Year award in 2021. Now, Michael is back with a new project, commissioned by Celtic Connections as part of their New Voices programming. Gary catches up with Michael to hear all about this new composition, and the inspiration behind it.
