Music Encounters returns this summer

Saturday, 23 August 2025 at Port Edgar Marina South Queensferry, EH30 9SQ

Crowd on people at a music festival.

1pm - Ketu

Ketu, a genre-blurring world fusion music collective, weaving Indian classical (sitar, tabla), Middle Eastern motifs, jazz piano, funk bass, and Scottish folk viola into one bold, electrifying sound. Rooted in rhythm, driven by improvisation, and fuelled by global soul - high energy original act.

1.45pm - Liam Baker

Liam is advocate of art-as-therapy, and the positive effect of giving life to one's inner landscapes and voices. His main stylistic influences include late 20th century pop and rock, music from the folk revival, Jazz standards, west end musicals, and modern classical music.

2.15pm - Lone Bear Blues          

Lone Bear (Brazil) plays Early Blues and Country Ragtime on resonator guitar, harmonica and blues harp. His duo and trio feature the iconic vintage washboard and double bass, delivering spirited American classics and originals with fingerpicking flair, bottleneck slide and tales from the Deep South.

3pm - Los Chichanos Latin Fiesta

Wild syncopated Latin rhythms, surf-inspired guitar, vintage organ and Latin vibes. Los Chichanos bring their pumping fiesta of Jungle Cumbia (also known as “chicha”) to you headfirst. Join this infectious tropical excursion in the spirit of ‘60s and ‘70s Peru with high energy music to dance to.
