Sam Shackleton on Instagram: "Busking a traditional 1700’s Scottish outlaw folk ballad called “MacPherson’s Rant” on the banjo under the castle in beautiful Edinburgh, Scotland. This class historic ballad sung in the Scots language concerns the final moments in the life of famous Scottish outlaw, traveller, fiddle player, master swordsman, and folk hero, James MacPherson, who was hung in Banff, Aberdeenshire, for a crime he didn’t commit in 1700. Folk legends tell that a treacherous lover threw

Sam Shackleton on Instagram: "Playing my own Scottish version of a traditional American folk ballad called the “Sweet Snowy North” on the beautiful Isle of Harris, Scotland.
