An Evening with Alastair McDonald

About An Evening with Alastair McDonald

Alastair McDonald has been a performer on a full-time basis since 1970 and has built up a successful career not only in his native Scotland, but on numerous occasions has been invited to take his own style of musical entertainment to locations as diverse as America, Canada, Germany, Denmark, Israel, Thailand, East Africa and the Arab Emirates.

Never one to be easily pigeon-holed, he is probably best known as "...the folk singing jazz banjo-player from Scotland..." except for those areas in which he's known as "...the Scottish jazz banjo-playing folk singer..." !

Alastair's radio and TV credits are too numerous to list, likewise his recordings, and you will find him equally at home in a jazz club, folk club, variety show, theatre, concert hall or Church - not because he tailors his performance to the venue of the moment, but rather believes that a solid, entertaining, wholesome, uncompromising, thought provoking repertoire should know no bounds or require an apology wherever it may be performed.
