Terry Balfour

Terry Balfour has enjoyed playing Mandolin, guitar and singing with gaelic folk/americana group Macanta. Throughout his musical journey with Macanta, he has been afforded the privilege of playing on such programs as BBC Rapal, BBC Radio Nan Gaidheal, Gun Sgott, and Music at the Quay.

 He has also had the opportunity to perform for the Shetland Folk Festival, Celtic connections and various other festivals which encompass the folk/ celtic genre. He has absorbed many different musical styles whilst playing in a rich diversity of rock, jazz and folk ensembles and performed with a range of artists such as Christine Bovill and Skippinish.

Last year  Terry released a rock track (and having been played on SIBC), he says he is now channeling his experiences into more diverse work which is more fitting to the folk fusion market.
