Eilidh Shaw and Ross Martin.
Released June 2025 "Stay Here All Night"
Eilidh Shaw and Ross Martin are probably best known for their individual work with top traditional bands; The Poozies, Daimh, and Shooglenifty, although some may recall the 2000s when they made up 2 fifths of the cult folk explosion that was Harem Scarem.
Between them they have been at the heart of the Scottish Music scene for the best part of 30 years, touring the world with their own groups and as guest artists with a vast array of top performers, clocking up over 100 album appearances with names as diverse as Gaelic Superstar Julie Fowlis, Alt-Country legend Bonnie Prince Billy, Classic Crooner Tony Christie and World Music/ Jazz Fusion impresario Arnaud Ciapolino.
Their second Album, "Stay Here All Night" was released on the 21st of June, 2025 and was born out of the long musical winter of lockdowns and cancelled gigs, when the obvious choice faced by many couples was to either order another case of wine or build a home studio. Eilidh Shaw and Ross Martin did both of these things. The resulting album is a festival of creativity, full of the style and character that the duo has become known for.
Eilidh Shaw’s fiddle takes the lead on the instrumentals as new compositions such as Swimmy Tunes sit alongside old Highland classics like the Thief of Lochaber and Paddy’s Waltzes, a set of Gaelic Waltzes taken from her father’s home-made music book. The four songs on the album include covers of contemporary Scottish writers such as Stoned Again by Sandy Wright and Better Off Dead by Willie MacAskill while the title track Stay Here All Night showcases Shaw’s own songwriting.
Ross Martin’s consummate guitar arrangements tie the album together while the whole project is further decorated by a star-studded list of guest musicians that happened to be either passing the duo’s Highland home in Morar or had made the same decision during the dark days of covid and contributed from their own home studios. With a combined total of 74 years of gigging experience and over 100 album appearances between them this dazzling duo seamlessly blur the lines between the traditional and the contemporary with a uniquely mischievous style.
Their renowned live performances present a miscellany of heart warming songs, uplifting tunes and more yarns than a Shetland Jumper.
