Probably best described as a singer of songs and the songs come, mostly, from the contemporary folk pen, with only four of the 15 tracks in the public domain.
Bruce is another talent from Orkney - so how long before he settles into the international folk scene following Ivan Drever, Kris Drever and the Wrigley Sisters on a global touring circuit.
Good & interesting selection
