In the summer of 2015, The Walking Theatre Company brought eight professional musician-composers from Argyll together by the Music Makes Me project, each with a song inspired by life in the ‘Wild Country’. The album ‘In The Wild Country’, recorded on the shores of Loch Fyne in Strathlachlan Village Hall, is the result.

Find the album on iTunes, Apple Music and Spotify or order the CD viawww.musicmakesme.scot/cd
