I've been enjoying my performances at this year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe - over 30 shows! My solo show, Scottish Folk Roots & Offshoots, has been doing well. Tonight I begin my duo show with Roy Bailey - Not In Our Name: Songs Of Peace & Protest - Gigs.
Here's a review for my solo show!!!

Scottish Folk Roots And Offshoots
David Ferrard
The Royal Oak is the perfect setting to experience the wonderfully tender melodies that David Ferrard graces us with today. Sat in The Oak's bottom bar, this intimate venue plays host to an exquisite performance of traditional folk that stretches from Scotland to America and back again. Taking in both his heritages (he was born in Edinburgh to a Pennsylvanian mother), David's sweet, lyrical delivery transports you from one side of the Atlantic to the other on an unforgettable journey to the roots of traditional folk. Combining his own material with well known classics, Ferrard exposes himself as a talented enough songwriter, equal to those he takes inspiration from. Touching, hypnotic and inspiring: a new star of folk is on the rise.
Three Weeks rating 4/5
