transatlantic sessions, royal concert hall, glasgow

THE Transatlantic Sessions concerts have become part of the staple diet of the Celtic Connections festival for several years – and it is easy to see why their popularity endures.

They are a simple and straightforward recipe for success.

It is part organised jam session, part showcase for some of the finest talent on either side of the Atlantic and, for the artists on stage, part fun. Nights like this are Celtic to the core, they are what the festival thrives on, and a packed Concert Hall attested to that.
