Regular Music presents:

2025 marks 25 years since KARINE POLWART embraced a full-time career as a Scottish folk singer, and 20 years since she scooped three BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards following her debut solo album Faultlines.

Since then, she’s become a multi-award-winning songwriter, theatre maker, broadcaster and storyteller whose work evokes a richness of place, hidden histories, scientific enquiry and folklore. Trees and rocks speak. Birds flit in and out of vision. And the stars know everything. She conjures the beauty and magic, the sorrow and complexity of the world out of the corner of her eye, with lyricism and tenderness.

Her many collaborative projects encompass: Looking for the Thread, a 2025 collaborative album with Grammy Award winning US artist, Mary Chapin Carpenter, and renowned Gaelic singer Julie Fowlis;  Still As Your Sleeping, a duo with pianist Dave Milligan; Spell Songs, a multi-artist response to environmental loss; and theatre shows, including her forthcoming Windblown – a hymn to plants, gardeners and grieving – and Wind Resistance, her peatbog-inspired theatre show for The Royal Lyceum in Edinburgh.

Karine’s ‘feather & ether’ tour is a rare chance to enjoy her in intimate, conversational solo performance. Expect a clutch of new songs and wonder tales, and an evening of curiosity and compassion.
