Edinburgh Tradfest: Divergence

Divergence is Freya Rae on flute, whistles and clarinet, Siannie Moodie on clarsach and Tim Lane (Hidden Orchestra) on Kit, percussion and tongue drum.

Divergence is so named because the band seeks to employ non-traditional instruments in traditionally-inspired music. These include the silver boehm system flute, the clarinet and tongue drum. Their aim is to encourage inclusivity, progression and acceptance.

The trio take Freya's own melodies and twist them into sets and riffs, giving them a zest for life that is delightfully infectious.
