@sorleythebard: Since you all enjoyed the last songs in the Scots language, I decided to play one of the most Scottish songs I know, the great Scottish outlaw folk ballad known as “MacPherson’s Rant/Farewell” - check out the pinned comment for the true history of this ballad from the 1700’s!! My favourite version of this song is by the great Scottish folksinger, Hamish Imlach. Also, for those who have been asking, I’ll be releasing “Tramps and Hawkers” as a single on all platforms very soon followed by a ‘Traditional Scots Folk Ballads’ EP which will include “MacPherson’s Rant” too - make sure to follow all my socials to be the first to listen!! All links in bio! Cheers!! 🪕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #busking #busker #edinburgh #edinburghcastle #banjo #clawhammer #Scotland #scotslanguage #folkmusic #buskinglife #buskingtok #fyp #foryoupage

I love this Scottish outlaw folk ballad. It’s a piece of living history & tells the true story of outlaw, fiddle player & folk hero, James MacPherson-

GrierMc :

This is the best! I love hearing this music. It drives home how bluegrass from the Appalachians in the US is derived from Scots and Irish settlers

Matt c✝️👆🏻 :

As an Appalachian I love our scots Irish heritage I hear this song played every once in awhile but I've never heard a native scot sing it

And the feud between Macduffers and Banffers rages to this day. And the clock’s still stopped on the side facing Banff 😂

Does anyone feel the similarities between this and the Hanging Tree from the Hungrr Games series? Wonder if she was inspired by the Scots!
