Recent projects include The Lost Words: Spell Songs, a multi-artist response to environmental loss and climate breakdown and Wind Resistance, her peatbog-inspired theatre show for Edinburgh International Festival. “Enough is Enough” Karine’s song for Cop 26 has been streamed over 300,000 times on Youtube.
Dave Milligan is a leading figure in the diverse Scottish music scene. His musical imagination flows freely between multiple genres, most notably in the worlds of jazz and celtic music.
Songs of River and Tree, Stone and Sea weaves Karine’s songs and Dave’s subtle piano accompaniments into an uplifting concert that explores the many ways we interact with the rest of the natural world.
