Ewan Macintyre
We are thrilled to welcome Ewan Macintyre to Knockengorroch!
A natural performer and band leader, Ewan combines lush string arrangements, intimate acoustic storytelling and thought provoking lyrics with a fun, bombastic sensibility and showmanship. He delivers a transatlantic, soul/folk inspired show, combining influences of ’70s soul, traditional Scottish trad and bluegrass.
A second generation puppeteer, and musician, Ewan broke in his music with shows across Canada and Europe since 2015 and prior to that as ex-lead singer of award winning Edinburgh collective Southern Tenant Folk Union, psychedelic funk outfit Ruby & The Emeralds and with live and recorded theatre productions. Ewan is a Gàidhlig speaker and advocate for the language, inspired by nine years of living in Quebec and being surrounded by French and Indigenous language politics. He currently works on Skye in language and cultural development as well as performing and producing music for himself and others.
