Forefowk, Mind Me is a conversation between traditions: voice and pipes, accompanied and unaccompanied, DIY and folk. It features a mix of traditional songs, reinterpretations, and original arrangements drawn from Scots, Gaelic, and Irish traditions, alongside toasts, improvisations, and poetic settings.
“The name of the record Forefowk, Mind Me plays with the idea of elders or ancestors in a Scottish context. In Scots, when we say ‘mind me,’ we might mean ‘remind me,’ ‘remember me,’ ‘watch me,’ or ‘care for me.’ Our rich tradition, and the traditions of Scottish Gypsy Travellers and other indigenous groups in Scotland, need to be constantly reconnected with, built upon, looked after, and shared. My hope for this music is that it will be a stone added to the cairn of Scots song tradition—layered onto the past and soon to be overlaid by whatever comes next. It is an expression of my sense of self and a celebration of the things I find beautiful and interesting.”
Quinie’s main muse is Scots Traveller Singer Lizzie Higgins, who was heavily influenced by the piping tradition. Many of the tracks use uilleann pipe melodies as their architecture. The voice is used as a pipe-like element, at times taking on the role of a harmonic, at others as call-and-response canntaireachd (pipe melody sung using vocables). The album focuses on worlds of ideas and playful collaboration.
