Loading ...Mary Kathleen Burke Wins Open Stage Competition at The Border Gaitherin
Our sincere congratulations and a thunderous round of applause goes out to Fanrealm’s friend, Mary Kathleen Burke, a gifted folk singer / songwriter based in Glasgow, Scotland. Mary is this year’s winner of the Open Stage competition held this past Sunday at The Border Gaitherin’, a traditional music festival in Coldstream on the River Tweed.
Persuaded to sing songs she has written herself combined with that clear flawless voice made for a powerful and winning combination. Mary’s prize, the honor of opening for Sunday night’s concert which included artists such as Lori Watson and brother Ennis, Carly Blain, Andrew Waite, Duncan Lyle and a number of other outstanding performers. She also won a studio recording session down in Peeble.
On winning Mary was quoted as saying; “I didn’t expect to win but am very chuffed that I did.”
Way to go, Mary! The recognition is well deserved. We’re “very chuffed” as well.
