Description

Mix Heather Small and Julie Fowlis and you've got the singer-songwriter Ainsley Hamill. Ainsley is one of the UK's most distinctive and versatile singers, known for her remarkable voice, storytelling, and emotive style. Hailing from the west coast of Scotland, Ainsley has built a career celebrated for its authenticity, merging traditional Scottish folk with a modern touch.

Drawing inspiration from Scottish folklore and myth, Ainsley combines Gaelic, Scots, and original compositions with a rich tapestry of sounds, delving into the legends and landscapes of Scotland, with each track weaving a narrative that resonates with ancient stories and contemporary relevance.

In 2021, The Guardian described her "voice thick with velvet and mirk", likened to the warmth of The Breath and the forlorn depth of early Adele.

With roots nurtured at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Ainsley has a deep connection to Gaelic and traditional song, and creates a powerful and captivating sound, blending traditional and contemporary folk with stunning harmonies and masterful instrumentation.

We look forward to welcoming Ainsley to The Salt Works Sessions for the first time...
