Sarah McQuaid 7pm at the museum The museum is thrilled to be presenting folk singer Sarah McQuaid as part of her Scottish tour in 2020. Her award-winning musicianship, distinctive chocolatey vocals and mastery of the songwriting craft have led reviewers to describe Sarah McQuaid as a “triple threat”. Add to that a warm, charismatic stage presence, five critically acclaimed solo albums and a battery of instruments including acoustic and electric guitars, drum and piano — and you’ve got a one-woman powerhouse who defies categorisation because there simply isn’t anyone else out there quite like her. Not to be missed! sarahmcquaid.com Tickets £12 - can be purchased using this PayPal button - |
