The Quiggs
Stephen and Pernille are always given a warm welcome at Nitten. Since the MacCalmans disbanded in 2010 Stephen has carved his own well deserved place on the Folk Scene, along with his Danish born wife, Pernille. Beautiful close harmonies, sensitive instrumental support and a genuine love of song and storytelling make this talented duo an unmissable experience.

Ian Bruce and Kevin Green
Since the release in 1988 of his solo album 'Too Far From She', Ian has been a welcome fixture in the Scottish Folk scene. His last collection 'Together Forever' received rave reviews and he'll no doubt be including a few songs from that. This time accompanied by his partner Kevin Green on harmonies it promises to be a show well worth coming along to share.

A fabulous double-header featuring the return of the much missed SOOPNA and our very own rising star Paul Ashcroft. A cracking start to the year guaranted.

The mighty Ragged Glory return to the Nitten stage once more. Beautiful harmonies, wonderful stories and cripplingly awful jokes Make sure you're there..
Dave Gibb
A singer of songs and a teller of tales from the hills of Dumfries & Galloway who happily fingerpicks his way through life’s travails. Not to be missed.
John Graham & Jim Jack
John and Jim have played on the Folk scene for 50 years and are old friends of Nitten Folk Club. Tonight they're joined by Cy Jack on bass & keys. A splendid evening guaranteed.
