exceptional new project from two musical forces of the Scottish folk and roots music scene.
Laura-Beth Salter (Kinnaris Quintet, The Shee) and Ali Hutton (Ross Ainslie & Ali Hutton, Treacherous Orchestra) have come together to create a Scottish soundscaping masterpiece with a powerful message at its core.
Cinematic, contemporary and captivating, whilst still drawing from traditional roots, From the Ground is an ode to nature and its infinite power to heal. It carries an urgent message for its listeners – we must cherish our planet – and celebrates how connecting with our natural environment can benefit our mental health.
After launching their debut gig with 7 piece band at a headline show at Celtic Connections 2025, Ali and Laura-Beth are now taking their new music to audiences all over the UK with the option of a smaller line-up to enable them to visit intimate venues. The four piece line-up will play music from the album, as well as new newly composed pieces and will feature Patsy Reid on fiddle and Owen Sincalir on guitar. Some shows will also feature spoken word by renowned poet Jim C. Mackintosh.
