Fresh off playing Woodford and Cygnet Folk Festival 2025, Chloe brings her unique performance on harp in both Scots and English for one night only

embellished by her voice and superb harp playing" - The Herald
An internationally touring artist, performances have included Celtic Connections, Cambridge Folk Festival, Edinburgh Fringe and Melbourne Celtic Festival. In
2022 she received Celtic Music Radio’s Album of the Year for her debut album, Small Voyages, and was selected for the WOMEX awarded Global Music Match
.2023 saw her awarded a Danny at Celtic Connections; a Live Music Award at Greenock Telegraph Community Awards; and nominations for the Wales Folk
Awards; Scots Singer of the Year in MG Alba Trad Awards; and was one of five finalists in the Canadian Goderich Emerging Artist Showcase.
Press highlights include playing live on BBC Radio Four Woman’s Hour, BBC Scotland TV News, and interviews on BBC Radio Scotland’s The Afternoon Show
and ABC Melbourne. This October she releases her anticipated second album, Sailors and Rolling Stones, followed by tours of the UK, US and Australia.
Chloe lives on her family run Alpaca and Goat Trekking centre.
