This was a wonderful show from talented musicians. The stirring Scottish music and their obvious love for their life with a backdrop of beautiful views of home made it a most enjoyable experience. I would definitely recommend and hope to see them again in the future.

Thoroughly enjoyed this show. Felt very patriotic and it was nice to see the scenery in the photos. The music was haunting and the artistes are both very talented.

This is an absolute treat of a show for anyone who appreciates gorgeous and stirring music. I loved every moment and felt transported to the beautiful Hebridean Islands. Both Gary and Elsa are highly talented musicians and singers, their warmth comes across well and as a lover of the Scottish islands and Highlands, the true feel of this land comes across really well in their words and in their music. A true highlight of the Fringe, 5 ☆

This was a very pleasant show featuring a husband and wife. The music was quite nice and it really did make us think of the highlands, which is where we had just been. We are thinking of going back to see them perform the other show, Caledonia. If you're looking to get away to the highlands in musical form, I would recommend.
