Kris Drever is among Scotland’s most acclaimed and distinctive contemporary
musicians, celebrated for his warm voice, virtuosically expressive guitar
playing and imaginative and evocative songwriting. Raised in the Orkney
Islands, Drever has carved out a unique place at the intersection of traditional
folk and modern acoustic music, as a solo artist and as one third of the award-
winning trio Lau. Over the course of his career, Kris has won hatfuls of honours, including BBC
Radio 2 Folk Awards for Best Singer, Best Original Song, and Best Group with
Lau. His solo work combines lyrics of depth and authenticity with expertly
pitched arrangements, exploring themes of place, identity, and social change,
delivered with clarity, compassion, and poetic insight.
Kris will be playing some brand-new songs from his new album ‘Doing this for
love’ as well as a selection from his back catalogue of originals and his storied
interpretations of traditional material.
