Carrie Scrimgeour

Carrie Scrimgeour is a singer / songwriter whose upbeat, inspiring songs give an energetic, feel-good and distinctly Scottish twist to a playlist that might include A Great Big World, Imagine Dragons and WILD. Her writing, infectious in its optimism, has shades of pop rock and folk running through its veins. Carrie has an honours degree from the MGA Academy of Performing Arts, along with a Diploma in Music Performance from the Academy of Music and Sound in Edinburgh. Carrie’s tracks have been featured on Jim Gellatly’s New Music Podcast as “a band that’s going places”. She has played top Scottish venues such as the O2 Academy, the Glasgow ABC and Oran Mor. Carrie was also chosen to be a backup singer for West End and Broadway star Kerry Ellis at the Queens Hall in Edinburgh, and in 2019 supported Steve Rodgers, son of legendary musician Paul Rodgers, in a sold out show at the Voodoo Rooms. “I want to give people something to smile about, and send a positive message about believing in yourself and knowing that, ultimately, everything will be fine.”
