Songs of North East Scotland and the stories that Inspired them

When & Where

Aberdeen City Local Studies Service
Wednesday, 22 January 2025 - 6:00pm to 7:30pm
Aberdeen Central Library, Rosemount Viaduct, Aberdeen, AB25 1GW

Event Details

Many of the traditional songs featured in Mike Gibb’s new book may be familiar to readers but perhaps not the stories that inspired them. Join the local author at Aberdeen Central Library for a talk about his book that reveals the history of well-loved songs from the region, including The Bonnie Lass of Fyvie, A Gordon for Me and The Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen.

This is a free, in-person event with booking required.
