Perthshire Amber
has been described as "…a jewel
of a festival where contemporary song meets
folk, roots and tradition" (Courier and
Advertiser). It was begun in 2005 as a
weekend music festival and has grown to
become a successful 10-day event that is an
important part of Scotland’s musical
calendar. Dougie MacLean is
"Scotland's pre-eminent singer-songwriter
and a national treasure" (Performing
Songwriter USA) "a musical hero" (Wall
Street Journal) who has developed a unique
festival which shares with visitors from
Scotland and abroad his native and very
beautiful scenery, as well as his music and
musical friends. This 10 day festival
features international and Scottish
musicians of the highest calibre. As well as
Dougie MacLean performing solo, with his
band and with a string ensemble. The
concerts are staged in a variety of
wonderful venues from an iron age crannog on
Loch Tay, to historic Blair Castle and
Castle Menzies and stunning Dunkeld
Cathedral to the Festival Theatre in
Pitlochry.
"MCLEANSCOTLAND are a well respected
tour company here in Perth
and with Paul McLean having the same
surname and both he and Dougie living in
Perthshire, who better to get together with to offer tours, accommodation and
transport for this event?" David Menzies, Perth.
