14th June 2009Craic-ing Cancer ConcertOrganisers of the upcoming Craic-ing Cancer Concert in Aberfeldy on Saturday July 25th are hoping the evening will be a sellout success, raising money for Breakthrough Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer 2000. Performers include Glasgow’s actress and comedienne (and past conductor of Aberfeldy Gaelic Choir) Isobel Rutter, and internationally-renowned singer and folklorist Margaret Bennett, both hugely successful performers in an Aberfeldy concert last year, and invited back by popular demand. Also appearing will be poet and storyteller Maria Cairnie, and Aberfeldy & District Gaelic Choir. Local folk duo (and Choir members) Kenny "Crieftan" Graham and David “Dibble” Morton will be performing, and proceedings will open with Kenny and two Edinburgh musicians in the acoustic group “The Wanton Pegs”.
