Claire Hastings - Fair Weather Beggar

LCM Song Of The Day: ‘Fair Weather Beggar’ - Claire Hastings

Our featured track today is the latest single from the the award winning Scottish Folk singer-songwriter Claire Hastings. It’s taken from Claire’s new album ‘Those Who Roam’ which is due to be launched at a special gig at Celtic Connections on the 18th January. We are big fans of Claire’s music here at LCM HQ and are really looking forward to listening to the album in full on its release.

‘Those Who Roam’ is the much-awaited second album from former BBC Young Traditional Musician of the Year Claire Hastings. It is a blend of original and traditional songs under the theme of journeys, and follows the success of Claire's debut album 'Between River and Railway' released in 2016. The album features accomplished musicians Jenn Butterworth (guitar), Laura Wilkie (fiddle), Thomas Gibbs (piano) and Andrew Waite (accordion). It was recorded, mixed and mastered at Castlesound Studios by engineer Stuart Hamilton alongside producer Inge Thomson. The album showcases the versatility of Claire's style and repertoire, with some interesting stories along the way.
