SHEENA WELLINGTON


A timely entry for a truly inspiring Scot woman, particularly since she is appearing in concert at St. Paul's Cathedral, Dundee at 1.pm. tommorrow, Saturday 15/10/11!! It should be a good way to spend your lunchtime in Dundee

Sheena was born in Dundee into a family of singers and factory weavers. She sings Burn's songs, ballads and the best of contemporary offerings.

She has been a keen supporter of folk music throughout her career and has helped get more funding for this important branch of the Arts.

She has Doctorates from the Universities of Dundee and St. Andrews and the The Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama.

In November 2009 she was installed in the Scottish Traditional Music Hall of Fame.

The acoustics in St Paul's Cathedral are marvellous and it should be a marvellous concert in this beautiful Church. There is also a fine supporting act of fiddle music.


Tickets are £4 and £3concession available on the door.
