Party: Findlay Napier at Montrose Folk Club

The career of Findlay Napier began as the Singer and Guitarist of the award-winning Band, Back of the Moon. In his more recent projects “Queen Anne’s Revenge” and “The Bar Room Mountaineers” his song-writing took centre stage and was described by The Sunday Herald as “Genuine songcraft and wit following in the Difford & Tilbrook tradition”.

Findlay Napier is now established as probably the best Singer Songwriter currently operating upon the Scottish Acoustic Music Scene. In 2015, Findlay released an album of entirely self-written material, VIP, to outstanding reviews. VIP was voted as one of the Twelve Best Folk Music Albums of 2015 by the Daily Telegraph, which described the album as “inventive and an original engaging treat”.

Folk Radio UK awarded the album Five Stars and described the songs of Findlay Napier as “full of earthy humour, hopeless love and biting satire-more “Michael Marra meets Elvis Costello” than contemporary folk tradition. VIP also received the accolade “Album of the Week” from the Sunday Express who described Findlay as “a warm, witty and engaging Singer with a real gift for melody”.

Findlay is highly regarded as a teacher and tutor and is the longstanding host of Celtic Connections’ Late Night Sessions as well as his Hazy Recollections concert series which showcases the very best in new roots music.
