Maeve Mackinnon
Maeve Mackinnon is a Scottish folk singer. Originally from Glasgow, she performs primarily in Scottish Gaelic, but also in English. She is also one of two Gaelic singers who share the same name.
==Early life==
Maeve Mackinnon grew up in the west end of Glasgow to a family of both Skye and Swedish heritage. Her father, Chairman of Scottish CND for over 30 years, took the family on regular demonstrations against Apartheid, nuclear weapons and in support of the miners strikes, and she credits these formative experiences as when she learned to both walk and sing. It was also as a toddler at political rallies that she first heard the Scots singer Dick Gaughan, who would become a major musical influence.
Mackinnon developed a deep interest in Gaelic language during regular childhood holidays to the Isle of Jura, where she met native speakers of Gaelic and took part in local ceilidhs where she was encouraged to sing.
Heavily influenced by Gaelic supergroup Capercaillie, Mackinnon began singing in Gaelic at school shows. On leaving school at 17 she started learning Gaelic formally at Clydebank College and subsequently majored in Gaelic song at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama (RSAMD.) During her studies at RSAMD she received tuition from well respected tradition-bearers and lecturers on a wide range of subjects, primarily with Gaelic song scholar Kenna Campbell and former course director and multi-instrumentalist Brian McNeill. Mackinnon graduated from the RSAMD with Honours in 2004.
