Caledonia

Last year Scotland celebrated the 250^th Birthday of Robert Burns (Scotland’s greatest poet) and because of this was designated “Homecoming Scotland” year.
The Anthem of the event was a song called “Caledonia”, (originally a 70s Scottish folk ballad written by Dougie MacLean). The song has been recorded by a variety of Scotland’s top artists and this version sees Jackie adding her own unique voice to the patriotic homeward call to all Scots abroad.

 The song was recorded and mixed in Scotland at The Citrus Factory and mastered at Parrothouse Studios in Spain. It was arranged and produced by Steve Thiebault and features Scotland’s own Willie Logan on guitars.

 “It was fantastic collaborating again with Willie and Steve, says Jackie. “They’re both such amazingly talented people and I’m really delighted with our original take on it”.

 Jackie’s classically romantic interpretation of “Caledonia” creates the perfect combination of the Scottish and Nashville sound. Listen for yourself and see if you don’t agree.
