Iona Fyfe to perform at the Palindrome on Sunday

PORT TOWNSEND — Iona Fyfe will perform at 7:30 p.m. Sunday.

The concert will be at the Palindrome at Eaglemount Cidery, 1893 S. Jacob Miller Road in Port Townsend.

Tickets are $20 online at www.rainshadowtickets.com or $25 at the door.

Fyfe, a folksinger from Aberdeenshire, sings in the traditions of the North East of Scotland. She performs both folk and pop songs in the Scots language.

Fyfe released her debut album, “Away From My Window,” in 2018 and the follow-up, “Dark Turn of Mind,” in 2019.

In 2021, Fyfe was the first vocalist to receive the Musician of the Year award at the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards. She also was named Citty Finlayson Scots Singer of the Year for 2018 and 2023 by the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards.

Fyfe is an advocate for the official recognition of the Scots language, and her campaign led Spotify to recognize Scots and add it to its list of languages.

She was named Speaker of the Year at the 2021 Scots Language Awards.
