Norman&Corrie

Scottish musical duo Norman&Corrie are challenging traditional notions of folk and jazz with new pieces translated from ancestral melodies. These melodies were recently discovered by them during a residency in Shetland where they spent time learning from tradition-bearers and explored the music archives of the Shetland Museum. Norman, originally from Shetland, and Corrie from Glasgow, each have deep respect for their shared heritage, their music bridging the gap between tradition and innovation, infusing ancestral melodies with modern production techniques and instruments. The pair are immersed in the jazz and contemporary music scene, Corrie performing with Dinosaur, Jacob Collier and Rob Luft, and Norman working with The Peatbog Faeries and Beth Orton. Together they bring to life a project that reflects their shared Scottish identity. Their unique setup, featuring a drum kit, saxophone and organ foot pedals, combined with expert sound design, results in music that’s both vibrant and firmly rooted.
