The 21st MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards are just around the corner with over 110 artists and organisations in the running across 22 categories, showcasing the abundance of talent in Scotland’s traditional music scene.  With the genre experiencing an impressive resurgence, reaching wider audiences with new festivals and events popping up year after year, the awards – organised by Scotland’s traditional culture, music and arts organisation Hands Up For Trad – stand as a testament to the trad scene’s enduring appeal.
