Alastair McDonald – Vocals and Banjo
Alastair is one of Scotland’s
most loved, most talented and most versatile showbiz personalities.
A highly renowned
international performer, singer, song-writer, recording artist and
broadcaster - Alastair often humbly describes himself as a "banjo player".
But his fellow musicians
recognise him as the hottest banjo player around belying all those
anti-banjo stories with which Alastair often entertains his audiences. This
talent was recognised as far back as 1962 when he scooped the best banjoist
award at the North of Scotland Jazz Festival.
Alastair McDonald has been a
performer on a full time basis since 1972 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 USA, Canada, Germany, Denmark, Israel, Thailand, East Africa, the
Arab Emirates and even Auchtermuchty.
Alastair`s radio & TV credits
are too numerous to list here, as are his record releases, but his vast
range of recorded material can be viewed at :
