The Glasgow Barons, Govan's orchestra have joined forces with Skippinish lead singer Norrie MacIver to release their debut album. 'Songs of Govan Old' is a collection of material celebrating the Glasgow neighbourhood's rich heritage. The album is a tapestry of stories from the vibrant, close-knit community of Govan's days gone by and pairs Scots and Gaelic folk music, rooted in the tradition of social commentary, with the stunning sounds of a string orchestra. Govan's ship building era is brought back to life as The Glasgow Barons and Norrie celebrate the area's working class heroes, and recognise its Gaelic population.
