Peggy Seeger and Calum MacColl in Concert

BBC Radio Scotland - Travelling Folk, Peggy Seeger and Calum MacColl in Concert

Peggy Seeger and Calum MacColl are in concert, recorded at Portsoy

Peggy Seeger and Calum MacColl are in concert, recorded at the 11th Haal in Portsoy. Plus Bruce revisits his in-depth conversation with Peggy at Celtic Connections 2020

Peggy Seeger is one of the most well known and well loved voices of the folk revival. Responsible for many incredible albums, protest songs, and feminist anthems, she's a shining star of the folk world, while always having her feet firmly planted on the ground. 

In this special programme we hear Peggy in concert with her son Calum MacColl, recorded at the 11th Haal festival in Portsoy, plus another chance to hear Bruce in conversation with Peggy at Celtic Connections in 2020. They cover her love of Scotland, the importance of singing in your own accent, and why tradition is a tricky thing to pin down.
