Kim Carnie competes in the finals of the BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician Award 2017 at 5pm on Sunday February 5, which will be broadcast live on Radio Scotland.
OBAN Gaelic singer and law student Kim Carnie has been named as a finalist in the BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician 2017.
Kim, 23, was hooked on Scots song from the moment when, aged three, her grandfather, ‘a beautiful Scots singer’, taught her to sing Bonnie Wee Jeanie McColl. Although not from a Gaelic-speaking household, when she began to learn Gaelic at school, love of the language grew.
