The renowned Scottish singer and accordion player Brandon McPhee is bringing his award-winning show to Moate's Tuar Ard Arts Centre later this month.

Over the years he has performed to Royal audiences and for international dignitaries including Margot Robbie and James Nesbitt. He has also played at esteemed institutions Oxford and Cambridge University, as well as to thousands of supporters at his concerts and theatre shows.

In the studio, Brandon has recorded duets with Daniel O’Donnell, Foster and Allen, Tony Allen, and has shared the stage with the likes of Gene Watson, Van Morrison and many more.

Brandon McPhee’s show is a celebration of country, Scottish, folk and Irish music, showcasing his virtuoso accordion skills, heartfelt vocals and captivating stage presence. A truly unforgettable music experience.

The recent theatre tour of Scotland and Ireland featured many standing ovations. "You were absolutely fantastic accordion playing was amazing and your singing voice blew me away," was one of the many positive audience comments received after the tour.
