Dinosaurs now live and hunt alongside humans all over the world, but will this fragile balance continue and humans remain the predators on a planet they now share with history’s most fearsome creatures?

Having presented the very funny and eventful MacAulay and Co on BBC Radio Scotland for almost 18 years and with a string of tv appearances since 1995, Fred’s on air witticisms and on screen reputation are the product of years of experience on the live circuit.

In December 2021 Fred was one of the team of four who won one of the highest amounts ever (£116,000) for their chosen charities on ITV’s THE CHASE.

Fred: “what I absolutely love more than anything (about my job) is standing on stage and making a room full of people hoot with laughter …… especially in Scotland”.

Expect to hear tales of:- Lockdown weddings, gags about complying with the regulations, isolating, things that bind us together …. (like finding out that your bottle bins were too small), ZOOM gigs, Carpark gigs, nuisance phone calls …… and ….. OH YES…….impending grandparenthood!

“If snow could sing, it would sound like Julie Fowlis”. Robert Macfarlane

Touring her remarkable new album – alterum

Hailing from the Outer Hebrides and now based in the Highlands, Julie Fowlis is a multi-award winning singer whose music is deeply influenced by the Hebridean islands where she grew up and by the Highland landscapes where she now resides.

With a career spanning several studio albums and numerous high profile collaborations, her ‘crystalline’ and ‘intoxicating’ vocals have enchanted audiences around the world.

She will forever be recognised for singing the theme songs to ‘Brave’, Disney Pixar’s Oscar, Golden Globe and BAFTA winning animated film, set in the ancient Highlands of Scotland. One of these songs was long listed for an Oscar in 2013. A winner of ‘Folk Singer of the Year’ at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, Julie has graced stages around the world, from village halls in the Highlands to Carnegie Hall in New York, the Mozart Concert Hall in Vienna, The Philharmonie de Paris, Shakespeare’s Globe in London and the World Festival of Sacred Music in Fez, Morocco. She has collaborated with the BBC Concert Orchestra in the Royal Albert Hall for the Proms, sang live at the closing ceremony of the Ryder Cup in Chicago in 2012 to a TV audience of 500 million, an event that was only eclipsed by singing live at the opening ceremony of the Glasgow XX Commonwealth Games in 2014, to a TV audience of over 1 billion. Her voice has been streamed on Spotify alone over 120 million times, and has been heard in space on an official NASA astronaut playlist. She even has a lily flower named after her.

A natural collaborator, she has performed with artists such as James Taylor, KT Tunstall, Chris Thile, Graham Coxon (Blur), Nicola Benedetti and Mary Chapin Carpenter. A regular TV and radio presenter, she is also a sought after voice artist, most recently involved with the Penguin Audiobook release for “The Lost Spells”

She was Scotland’s inaugural ‘Tosgaire na Gàidhlig’ (National Gaelic Ambassador), an honour bestowed on her by the Scottish Government, and in addition to her BA and Masters degrees she holds an honorary Doctorate of Music from Robert Gordon University, Aberdeen.

Julie is the voice of Scottish Gaelic for the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights Project, which aims to record the declaration in every language in the world. From Abkhaz to Zulu, the declaration has been recorded in 529 languages to date.
