Saltfishforty

Saltfishforty are a fresh and dynamic duo hailing from the Orkney Islands in the north of Scotland. Douglas Montgomery (fiddle/viola) and Brian Cromarty (songs/guitar/mandola) combine the rich traditional music of Orkney with original compositions. The powerhouse partnership are key figures in the currently flourishing revival of Orkney’s traditional music; together the friends produce a thrilling and multi-dimensional rich sound.
‘What makes Douglas Montgomery and Brian Cromarty distinctive is the quality of their playing and singing, and the way they weave other influences into the Scottish mix.’ The Guardian
