Ewan’s singing and playing covers the broad range folk music has to offer; from traditional ballads sung unaccompanied, to dance tunes or melancholic airs arranged for the guitar, and with a strong emphasis on his own contemporary songwriting that follows in the folk tradition.

Ewan did a great support spot for Archie Fisher at the Cabaret in June so by popular demand we asked him back to headline a night for us.
