The sound of Blueflint is defined by the sublime close harmonies of Deborah Arnott and Clare Neilson whose voices are accompanied by a five-piece line-up intertwining banjos, fiddle, piano, electric guitar, double-bass and drums. They produce raw, honest and beautifully-crafted songs, imbued with a strong alt folk flavour.
In 2012 Blueflint spent six week supporting The Proclaimers on their UK album launch tour. Their atmospheric and evocative performances proved them to be a formidable live act and they have gained them a strong reputation and following throughout the UK.
The band recorded their third album, Stories from Home, which is being released in 2015, with renowned producer Paul Savage and funding support from Creative Scotland.
