In this meetup, music, conversations and stories take center stage. Join, Colin MacLeod, the Celtic Fiddle Guru for inspiring, educating and entertaining events.

🎶 A musical journey through the Scottish landscape
Step into an hour-long Celtic Sound Experience that blends meditation, imagination and live fiddle.
Guided by Colin MacLeod — founder of the School of Schlottish Fiddle Mastery — this session uses the expressive voice of the fiddle to evoke the memories of the lochs, glens, mountains, coastal winds, and the pulse of ancient rhythm.
This is not a concert. It’s a restful, immersive sound journey designed to help you relax, recharge, and open the next part of your day with a clearer, quieter mind.
***
What to expect*:*
Live, guided sound journey using Celtic fiddle textures and subtle atmospheric tones.
Meditative environment: lights low, audience invited to lie or sit comfortably. No applause during the experience.
Length: ~75 minutes (a gentle arrival, ~45–50 minutes of continuous soundscapes, then time to land and reorient).
Outcome: deep relaxation, creative replenishment, and a gentle emotional release — you may leave feeling calm, inspired, or simply rested.***
What to bring / how to prepare
Yoga mat, blanket, or large towel (you’ll want to lie or recline comfortably).
Cushion or bolster for neck/knee support.
Water bottle.
Eye mask or light cover (optional) for deeper rest.
Wear comfortable layers — Soulshine Studios can be cool when lying still.Arrive 10–15 minutes early to set up and settle in.
