Tradconnect member Aoife Scott has just announced that she will be joining up with The Outside Track this year commencing with a tour in Australia. "Born into the legendary Black Family - which includes her mother, Frances, and her aunt, Mary - she has been surrounded by and immersed in music from an early age, from listening to her grandparents, mother, aunt and uncles making music around the fire, to observing the backstage workings of festivals both here and abroad. Now she is making her own way in the music business

Her work includes prestigious performances with some of Ireland's finest musicians and international acts including Sharon Shannon, Séamus Begley, Brian Kennedy,  Altan, Cherish the Ladies, Eddi Reader, John Prine, and of course the Black Family.  We are big fans of The Outside Track who are one of the best groups around with a great mix of traditional and some superb songs. We are featuring the title track from their Flash Company album on our Spotify Playlist at the moment. You can also read our review of the album here.
