It provides the opportunity to learn the secrets of Shetland Fiddle from a range of experienced tutors, explore the thriving musical traditions of Shetland, and to be part of the Festival Week which is packed with a range of Frenzy Fringe options and Evening Concerts.Alan Mcleod of Klub Revolution said: “Klub Revolution is delighted to be working in collaboration with Shetland Arts to bring one of Shetland's most successful bands home for a special Frenzy Fringe show at Mareel. Rock, Salt & Nails have consistently proved themselves as a must-see act for over 2 decades, and we're sure that they'll blow the roof off Mareel on their debut show in Shetland's flagship venue.”
