Folk songs from Scotland: Salt House

Salt House have been a fixture on the Scottish-British folk scene for over a decade. The band's reputation as thoughtful and innovative interpreters of both old ballads and contemporary songs has been cemented with acclaimed album releases and extensive touring. Described by The Guardian as "a gentle, lulling delight," Salt House blends sensitive vocals and instrumental interplay, offering the listener a moment of reflection and connection. New songs that sound as if they've always been there, old ballads brought back to life, and poems given the melodies they long deserved. Salt House's sound is influenced by the landscapes of the Scottish Highlands, Northumberland, and Shetland, the band members' respective homelands.
