The main contact is Pete Heywood, who is also the editor of The Living Tradition magazine. Pete was one of the principal organisers of The Girvan Traditional Folk Festival up to 1995. Contact him directly at pete@thetraditionbearers.com

Pete's wife is Heather Heywood, who has recorded for The Tradition Bearers. Although not listed as an organiser of events like Girvan - Heather has been a guiding hand and very much part of the partnership. The Tradition Bearers is not an attempt at self promotion. If anything, Pete has been guilty of not using Heather enough as a singer in events that he has been involved in. Her singing speaks for itself.

John Slavin is the graphic designer for The Tradition Bearers. He is a whistle player and is currently learning to play the Highland pipes.

The Artists If you would like to get in touch with any of the artists, or with other traditional musicians, or are interested in arranging concerts in conjunction with the series, please contact us. We will help as much as we can.
