Doors Open 7.30pm
Concert starts 8pm
Finishes (approx.) 10.15pm  

Paying bar before the concert and during the interval.

Charismatic Peggy Seeger – singer, songwriter, feminist, icon, Ewan MacColl’s partner and muse – is the undisputed queen of folk and political song.

On this ‘First Farewell’ tour, join Peggy and her son Calum MacColl, an exceptional musician in his own right, for a glorious evening of up-close performance in St. Margaret’s, Braemar.

Expect to hear a mixture of new and traditional songs from Peggy’s huge repertoire, plus some of her and Ewan MacColl’s most loved songs, interspersed with readings from Peggy’s award-winning memoir ‘The First Time Ever’.

There will of course be plenty of audience participation and lots of relaxed family banter.
