Join us for a special program in partnership with the Anchorage Concert Association, as we welcome the acclaimed Scottish band Gnoss. Through a blend of storytelling and live acoustic performance, Gnoss will explore the power of music to preserve history, evoke memory, and build connections across cultures. They will share the fascinating stories behind their songs—drawing on Scottish heritage, personal experiences, and global musical traditions.
This unique program shows that music is more than entertainment: it’s a living archive of culture and a bridge between people and generations. Experience the melodies, narratives, and emotions that bring history to life in an intimate, engaging setting.
For those inspired to hear more, Gnoss will be performing a full show later that evening at the Discovery Theatre. Tickets are available through the Anchorage Concert Association.
About the Band
Gnoss’ signature sound is a rich tapestry of acoustic layers; outstanding musicianship, deep traditional roots and contemporary compositional flair combine to create songs and tunes brimming with character.
Triple Scots Trad Music Awards nominees, the band have built an invested following through their forward-thinking take on traditional music and the unique warmth of their live shows. This has been proven through three consecutive sellout appearances at Glasgow’s world-famous Celtic Connections festival.
Their 2019 release, Drawn From Deep Water was met with widespread praise (“a refreshing blast” – RnR) for its exemplary interplay, nakedly emotional playing, and well chosen material. Their follow up album, The Light of The Moon continued to demonstrate Gnoss’ dedication to their craft that places them firmly at the fore of what’s happening in Scottish folk and earned them a nomination for Album of the Year at the Scots Trad Music Awards.
With the release of their third album, 2023’s Stretching Skyward, Gnoss reignite their collaboration with producer and engineer, Scott Wood (Skerryvore), further exploring their acoustic roots whilst incorporating new, electronic elements.
Gnoss combines the talents of;
Aidan Moodie (Guitar/Vocals)
Graham Rorie (Fiddle/Mandolin/Electric Tenor Guitar)
Connor Sinclair (Flute/Whistles/Vocals)
Craig Baxter (Bodhran/Percussion)
