News from the Quiggs
(updated 29/11/21)
We're suddenly approaching winter and there's a few gigs coming up in Scotland that we're looking forward to.
A big thank you to all who organised and came along to see us during our visits to Denmark and Germany in October. We had some great gigs and were met by kind people all round.
There are still gigs coming in for 2022, which can all be viewed on the gigs page. There's now also a page on the drop down menu for Stephen's solo gigs, note these gigs are only booked on a monthly basis.
The Quiggs' bandcamp page is doing well and we're getting a few visitors, it would be great if you could have a look and if you like follow us and download our music (it is worth mentioning that if you like to download your music and support the artists in the best way possible we would ask you to use bandcamp) We will continue to add to the list of albums and tracks available for download on bandcamp so if you would like to be notified just click this link to follow us.
A new page has been added to this website called PernillePrints here you will find original handprinted linocuts made by Pernille. Several are printed as limited editions and all are unique as each print is burnished by hand.
Online Concerts with The Quiggs:
There is no set date yet but the next online Live Concert set with The Quiggs on Music From Scotland Facebook page will likely be sometime before Christmas. We'll keep you posted on Facebook once a date has been set.

It has been very encouraging to see the great response to the Quiggs CD "Wings of Gold" and that it's getting airplay on BBC Radio Scotland and lots of local radio stations and many enthusiastic comments from those who have already bought it.
The CD is available to buy through the link PayPal.me/quiggsfolkduo The CD is £10 in the Uk and £13.50 for the rest of the world (postage included.)
