Hailing from the East Neuk of Fife, Anderson has long had an affinity for joining forces with other musicians, including The Fence Collective (James Yorkston, KT Tunstall, HMS Ginafore, The Pictish Trail); indie-folk supergroup the Burns Unit (Emma Pollock, Karine Polwart, Sushil Dade) and Jon Hopkins on Diamond Mine.
Also added to the line-up of the highly civilised, three-day festival is Jalen Ngonda, one of the most captivating performers on today’s soul scene, proclaimed by The Guardian as a one to watch, in September 2023.
Joining Jalen Ngonda is Deer Shed favourite John Francis Flynn whose second album, Look Over The Wall, See The Sky, has been nominated for Irish Album of The Year 2023.
