Loch Shiel Festival

Thank you for having us Resipole Studios - such a pleasure to be back in that fantastic space!

What a fantastic concert on Saturday night by the Maxwell Quartet! We were delighted to have artists Jane Rushton & Nicholas Lees join us to share insights into their work. This evening was part of the Loch Shiel Festival which, each year, brings an incredible program of events to this corner of the West Highlands.
