Theta SigmaAn excellent motion put forward by #Equity and the #MusiciansUnion campaigning for an increase to Scotland’s creative and cultural budget. It does bring money to the nation, but even if it didn’t, it should still be given the funding it needs because the arts and culture are worth so much more than their economic value. Unsurprisingly, it was passed unanimously by congress. #STUC #Arts

The first ever singer to win the coveted title of Musician of the Year at the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards 2021, Iona has been described as “one of the best Scotland has to offer.” (Global-Music.de) www.ionafyfe.com
