  • Description

    BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards Nominee 2018: Musician Of The Year.

    In January 2015 Ross Ainslie was commissioned by Celtic Connections to write a piece for the 'New Voices' series. Ross decided to go outside his comfort zone and try out songwriting for the first time and "Remembering" is what he achieved.

    "Remembering" features five songs and three tune sets, from "Head High" which is a song about remaining positive and not dwelling in the past that features some words by the living legend Jock Duncan to a kind of psychedelic, thrash grass suite called "Nowhere To Go" which is in three sections. "Lullaby For Mel" was written for Ross's friend that he lost far too early and it shows his flair for writing a beautiful slow melody. The album opens with a song called "Change" that reflects Ross's drinking days and the decision to go sober. Overall "Remembering" is an open and honest piece of music.
