Learn Traditional Scottish Tunes
I’ve been playing the fiddle since the age of seven and have been teaching for a few years. During the pandemic I started a business with my brother delivering online lessons – Mac-Talla Tutoring. Offering online lessons has allowed me to reach pupils from all around the UK and even across the Atlantic! I teach primarily by ear, allowing you to look away from the sheet music and play with others more easily.

The Banshee
The Banshee is a traditional Scottish reel that’s great fun to play. This video is ideal for intermediate players. You can find more on our channel.
Tam Lin
This classic tune by Davey Arthur was recorded while on anchor at the tiny Island of Sanda in Argyll. We love it and have been playing for years.
Sailor's Hornpipe
We couldn’t resist playing this classic while we sailed Will’s boat from Glasgow around to Oban.
String Changing Tutorial
Changing your strings can be a very daunting thought for beginners and advanced players alike, so I’ve put together a couple of videos to help you figure out when to change and how to do it!
