Malin Lewis

In a trailblazing new solo work, innovator & award winning multi-instrumentalist Malin Lewis deep dives into a hypnotic envisioned world of ancient Scottish folk music on fiddle and a newly invented, self made bagpipe. Exploring laments, improvisation, circular melody, jigs and reels, Malin performs an entrancing cycle of melodies that deconstruct and re-define the traditions they grew up within. Having toured across the UK, Canada and Europe, Malin released their celebrated debut album, Halocline, in May 2024 on Hudson Records.

A Halocline is a visible layer that forms between salt and fresh water and is home to a unique microbial ecosystem. Malin's unique timbre is born from the deep connection that comes from making and composing for their own instrument. Their one of a kind two-octave Smallpipe creates a whole new world of sound, captivating audiences at every opportunity.
