Julie Fowlis - Go Your Way

Go to → Julie Fowlis
Julie Fowlis sings ‘Go Your Way’, composed by influential English folk singer Annie Briggs. This song is taken from Julie's album ‘alterum’. Recorded in Loth Church, Highlands of Scotland, on a cold day in February. Built by in the infamous Duke of Sutherland in the early 1800’s who was responsible for the eviction of thousands of Highland people during the Highland Clearances, there were churches on that site for several hundred years previous. It is said to have originally been built on an intersection of lay lines and therefore a place of intense energy. It has earlier dark history as Janet Horne, the last woman in Britain to be accused of witchcraft, was taken from an earlier church building on that site to her execution. It is said that her daughter (who was with her) managed to escape by shape shifting into an animal. A film by Craig Mackay, Pictii. Thanks to Alistair Ferguson.
