Anna McLuckie is a Scottish singer, songwriter and clàrsach player. Raised on classical and traditional music, Anna’s writing draws on her musical beginnings and also takes influence from her love of popular music and more experimental sounds. Her music sits in a world of contemporary folklore; her songs layered with interweaving harmonies, story led lyricism and free form structures. Based in London, she has performed in places around the world from Rockwood Music Hall NYC, to a concert series in Russia, to house shows and folk sessions. She’s appeared at festivals across the UK and supported the likes of Jake Xerxes, Fussell, Rozi Plain and Richard Hawley.
Inspired by diverse music from around the world, and the natural world itself, Making Tracks brings together extraordinary musicians to create new work. Three editions of this residency have taken place to date, in 2021, 2022, and 2024.
In 2024, during a two-week residency at Cove Park, eight musicians developed new work in collaboration – including several pieces inspired by this year’s theme of Oceans – before heading off on a UK concert tour. Making Tracks is based around the idea that intercultural and interspecies approaches to music-making have the power to bring people together and foster a greater appreciation of both cultural diversity and biodiversity.
