Anna Murray was brought up in Back on the Isle of Lewis. She started playing the Highland bagpipes age ten, as well as being a gaelic singer.
After early Mod successes, television appearances and requests to perform at ceilidhs all over the islands she recorded her debut recording at the age of 20. This second album ‘Into Indigo’ follows in a similar musical vein with greater song content and introducing many new tunes played on both Highland and small pipes. Guitar and bouzouki form the backbone of the accompaniment, which also features very un-Gaelic blues harmonica and Hammond organ!
