A native of the Isle of Mull, Mimi grew up influenced by the West coast style.

 

West Coast Scottish music is a vibrant, distinct style rooted in Gaelic culture, characterized by its lively ceilidh energy, storytelling, and rich instrumental melodies. Centered on the Western Isles and the coastal mainland, this style often blends traditional influences with modern energy. 

 

Mimi music can often be sweet and romantic,

but sometimes its as wild as Mulls dramatic landscapes, a place where jagged highlands meet rolling glens and rugged coastlines.

Mimi spent 2 years resident at The National Centre of Excellence in Traditional Music a place where talented young traditional musicians can come and develop their skills to the full.

 

Mimi is now in her first year at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland studying a BMus with Honours in Traditional Music

 

 

Look out for Mimi playing in Inverness @ 'Hootananny Inverness,' an award winning pub and live music venue, @ An Seomar, Inverness or maybe working for Feis Rois. When Mimi is back on Mull you can find her playing at local gatherings, and supporting visiting professional musicians.
