The Poozies at Edinburgh’s Hogmanay Street Party 2025-12-31T21:00:00
The Poozies have been mistresses of cosmic shape-shifting for a miraculous 34 years….
Pioneers from the beginning, with a healthy dose of sass and irreverence, they paved the way for sparkly women folkies in a beardy man’s world.
The band continue to be anchored by the glorious bass of founding member Mary Macmaster’s electro-harp, while the irrepressible riotousness of Eilidh Shaw & Sarah McFadyen’s twin fiddles burst off to happily explore other musical dimensions.
The band are ever-evolving, and in 2023 they brought in the shimmeringly joyful guitar powerhouse Michael Bryan, and went on to experiment with various highly-acclaimed drummers and percussionists.
2025 sees them further embrace their unique brand of Trad-Punk with defiantly idiosyncratic new music. A blissful mix of songs that make you sing and tunes that make you dance, all bursting with energy, seduction, rascality and invention.
