Time to Shine

Time to Shine

Based in Prestonpans & Edinburgh, "Time to Shine" are Mags Macfarlane (vocals, artwork, shruti, dulcimer & autoharp) and Dougie Mathieson (keyboards & guitars), with Steve Shields (flute, whistles & bodhran) and John Keggie (drums & percussion).

Our music is primarily folk-based, featuring our own interpretations of traditional tunes, plus forays into jazz, world music, and original compositions. Most of the songs posted here were recorded in single takes during impromptu rehearsals and jam sessions in Mags's house in Prestonpans. We captured them using a basic stereo digital audio recorder, applying a minimum of post-processing and tweaking - we enjoy the resulting live, sparse, rough & ready feel.

From early 2020 onwards, tracks feature just Mags and Dougie, as the effects of lockdowns and personal health issues have taken their toll. The images accompanying the videos are primarily Mags's original artworks, along with a few of Dougie's photographs.
