Exciting Events

Since returning to live in the highlands of Scotland in August last year, Iona has enjoyed performing at some wonderful local events such as the Cawdor Castle Highland Food Festival, many local weddings in exciting locations ranging from churches to mountains, as well as performing her new material at gigs in both London and Scotland. Iona is also looking forward to performing at the Annual Scottish Food & Drink Award, which is being held at the Benromach Distillery later this week, for 350 nominees.

Iona and three of her friends, recently put together a fundraising show called 'Findhorn Female Artists Live' in aid of the Universal Hall and Moray Women's Aid. The supportive audience members raised over £1k for these worthy causes, and enjoyed an evening of fine entertainment from Iona on shruti, harp and voice, Susanne Olbrich on grand piano, Elizabeth Rogers on guitar and voice, and Kate O'Connell with her acapella group 'Too Many Kooks'. Thanks again for your support.

Please keep checking Iona's website for upcoming performances here. Also, for those of you who live locally to Iona, you may be interested to know that she is now available as a Singing Harpist for all of your special events including; Weddings, Christenings, Corporate Functions, and Private Parties.
