I’m looking forward to performing at this years Tartan Heart Festival. I’ll be performing on The Free Range Acoustic Stage on the 29th of July at 3:45pm, you can’t beat a lovely mid afternoon gig under a boat….yes, the stage is an upturned boat, which after many years of being at Bella I’ve never noticed…..Where The Ships Go To Die anyone?
Belladrum truly is both mine and my family’s favourite Festival!
Colin’s new band The Broken Creels have released their debut single ‘Friend or Foe’ on the 7th April 2023. It hit number 1 on the UK iTunes Rock chart beating out some legendary acts to grab the top spot (Metallica, AC/DC, The Waterboys and Peter Gabriel).
Thanks to The Press and Journal’s Scott Begbie for the excellent write up on my new single ‘Wishing Winter Away’, especially highlighting the wonderful involvement of Paul Anderson Scottish Fiddler on the project.
The article also highlights Aprils London (with Talentbanq) & Stonehaven (URBAN Project ZEE’S Stonehaven) gigs.
My brand new single ‘Wishing Winter Away’ is out for Worldwide digital release on Friday the 25th of March through Royale Music via InGrooves (Parent Co, Universal).
I’m honoured and delighted that the music video for my single ‘Within Hindsight’ has been selected for the shortlist for The Weekender’s (Scottish music magazine) ‘Music Video of the Year 2021’.
Thanks to everyone involved in it who simply did a wonderful job. C x

We are really aiming to get as high in the UK iTunes singer songwriter single charts as possible with this song and hopefully any success in that will contribute further to some quality PR for the single.
I’m very proud of all the work we did on this production! I hope you enjoy it.
I’m delighted to announce that I’m currently working on a new single (more details in the link below). Despite the current complexities of everyday life that is 2021 we are working hard to get single out as soon as feasibly possible.
The intention is to bring the single out complete with a wonderful accompanying music video by Aberdeen based filmmaker.
In order to make this intention a reality, I truly need YOUR help in funding this process. I have created a GoFundMe page (link below) and I come to you cap n’ hand that you may help realise this vision.
