About

A decade on from their first performance - and with 4 acclaimed albums under their belt - RANT remain at the forefront of the Scottish fiddle scene.

Bethany Reid from Shetland, Anna Massie and Lauren MacColl from the Highland peninsula of the Black Isle, and latest member Gillian Frame from Arran join forces to showcase the combined resonance of their instruments with repertoire unearthed from both old collections and their own contemporary writing.

RANT create a sound which is both spacious and lush yet retaining all the earthy bite and spark synonymous with a Scottish fiddle player. Their 2024 album ‘Spin’ is a homage to the music and influences that shaped their early careers. An affectionate ‘covers’ project, it draws on influences from across the global fiddle scene,

“This is powerful and evocative music that is invigorating, bewitching and beautiful.” Folk Radio UK
