Samhain - Songs of Resistance

An evening celebrating the Gaelic festival of Samhain with music from Karys and a night market with tarot readings.

This event marks Samhain, the ancient Gaelic festival meaning 'summer's end', which signals the end of harvest and the beginning of winter. The evening explores seasonal survival through community renewal and connection to the other world. Music is provided by Karys, an Edinburgh-based liminal pop singer and songwriter known for otherworldly vocals, metallic synths and textures ranging from dark and haunting to sparkling and euphoric. A night market with tarot readings also features, with stall invitations open to creators and makers.
