Tarran

Recently shortlisted for the Sound of Young Scotland Say award, Tarran are an exhilarating contemporary folk group from Glasgow, with roots in both Ireland and
the Scottish Highlands. The band consists of Sophie Joint (Keys), Breanna Wilson (Fiddle), Malachy Arnold (Harp), and Rory Stark (Whistle/Bodhran).

Using elements of funk, blues and contemporary rhythm, the band create a lively and innovative twist on traditional music. Tarran’s captivating performances have been brought to stages across Europe since 2019, notably their recent 2026 sold out Celtic Connections headline show, Lorient Intercelique Festival, Celtica Valle d’Aosta, and the Edinburgh Int. Harp Festival.

Their music has been well-received with over 75,000 streams across all platforms. Just coming off an autumn tour, the band has a new album in
the works, thrilled to share vibrant new material with a growing global audience.
