John McSherry

Founder member of Tamalin and Lunasa, and subsequently member of Coolfin, he is fifteen years later a virtuosic, world-renowned uillean piper.

Chris Stout

Shetlander Chris Stout, nominated in two categories in this year's Folk
on 2 awards, is firmly grounded in his traditional roots but never afraid
to explore new territory. The influences are clear - world, folk, jazz,
Shetland to Scandinavia - but Chris Stout defies categorisation.
