I play with a variety of bands and musicians, with my main regular ones below, write music for tune commissions and am available as a session fiddle player for gigs and recording.
Karys Watt & Dave Macfarlane
A versatile fiddle and guitar duo playing high energy tunes for an upbeat and lively gig, chilled out tunes for a background feel, or a combination of both. We play a lot of our own material as well as other Scottish trad tunes old and new.
With years of performing nationally and internationally, we regularly play all round Scotland for a variety of pubs, venues and functions.
Available for wedding ceremonies and ceilidhs, parties, pub gigs, festivals…

Tunna
A celtic folk rock fusion band with fiddle, guitar, bass and drums based in and around Perth. We play an upbeat selection trad music crossed over with rhythms and feels from a variety of genres. From straight ahead lively jigs and reels to funk, rock, heavy beats, disco, Latin styles and eastern feels, swing and jazzy sets, we have something to please everyone. Most of our music is original material, inspired by an eclectic combination of world music.

Live performances can be booked for fiddle solo, fiddle & guitar, trio and full band gigs at pubs, festivals, wedding ceremonies and ceilidhs, private functions and events. I work with musicians playing various instruments, so if you would like a combination of fiddle with keys, guitar, voice, whistle, or others, there are lots of options to choose from.
An original piece of music is a unique personal gift, from jigs and reels to slow airs, there’s a style to suit everyone. If you would like to find out about commissioning an original piece of music to be written for someone special, or in commemoration of a special occasion, contact me here.
