Moteh Parrott
Wednesday 6 July 1pm Free Entry
Born in Cameroon and given the local name ‘Mnkongmoteh’, Moteh Parrott is a Scottish alternative-indie artist whose music complements reflective, uplifting lyrics with open-tuned electric guitar and cello, and has been likened to “a Highland wilderness with all the sweeping colour and spirit which that encompasses” (leedsmusicscene.net)
Shortlisted for BBC Radio Scotland’s Singer-Songwriter of the Year Award 2019, Moteh is currently working on his debut album at Chem19 studios with Paul Savage, producer of Mogwai, Arab Strap and King Creosote, among other Scottish artists. Moteh joined Live Music Now Scotland in 2019.
This is part of our Free Lunchtime Concert Series.
Our Partnership with Live Music Now
Live Music Now Scotland enables the power of live music to reach people at the heart of our communities, especially those who wouldn't normally have access to its enriching benefits and pleasure. At the same time, it gives almost 100 outstanding emerging artists across a range of genres – traditional, classical, jazz, pop – invaluable training and performing experience at the outset of their careers. Around 500 performances are given in care homes, day centres, special schools and other community venues throughout Scotland each year.
