Cumbernauld Folk Club Presents RANT

Come along and experience the fine mixture of traditional and folk music, storytelling and good company. This brand-new monthly music night hosts a leading headliner with support from local musicians from in and around Cumbernauld. The theatre bar is also open throughout the night of joyously irresistible music.

Scotland’s ‘chamber-folk’ quartet RANT – who last year celebrated a decade of music-making – tour extensively in 2024 to release their brand new album ‘SPIN’. A bold, ambitious and reflective collection, SPIN is an album of reinterpretation – RANT’s take on influential tracks from their formative years. Music of bands and players from across the globe who inspired them individually and collectively. The album is a tribute to those influences, and whilst nostalgic by nature has a fresh, confident, energised approach synonymous with the band’s well-established resonant sound.

With 3 acclaimed albums under their belt – RANT remain at the forefront of the Scottish fiddle scene. The meeting of four of the country’s finest players, the quartet use just their fiddles to weave a tapestry of melodies, textures, layers and sounds.

Their live set – whether on the festival stage or an intimate church – reflects years of honing their sound together and their love for the music of their respective home regions through their writing, repertoire and stories.
