Auld Alliance - Contemporary Folk Duo

Introducing the Auld Alliance. Rekindling the fire of the Scottish-French union, two souls from different corners of the world have come together through music and song. Glasgow born Graeme McCoglan and Australian mademoiselle Amie Brûlée combine their Scottish and French roots with fine vocal harmonies, ukulele and double bass.

They perform an entertaining blend of upbeat traditional folk songs and beautiful heartfelt ballads from Scotland, Ireland, France, and Australia.

With a passion for folk music, whisky and wine, the Auld Alliance’s warm sounds will transport you across to Bonnie Scotland and La Belle France with renditions of Caledonia, Loch Lomond, La Vie en Rose and Sur Le Pont d’Avignon.

As well as offering music, Graeme is a Scottish Ceilidh Dance caller having run private and corporate events for many years back in his native land. With a fun, inclusive approach the Auld Alliance can host a rollicking ceilidh dance, enticing even the most reluctant of dancers onto the floor.

Donning their kilts and blue stripes and singing up a storm, the Auld Alliance serves up the musical equivalent of a good whisky and a fine cheese.
