Gordon Easton, of Tyrie, is what I like to call A One-man Folk Festival. Steeped in the tradition, he has been singing and playing (fiddle, moothie, trump, melodion, whistle) all his life, along with many decades of hard work with his wife Isobel as market gardeners. In the last fifteen years, he has become a fixture on the festival competition scene, sometimes entering as many as five competitions.

Listen to Gordon singing a verse of the local World War I era song, 'Tyrie Kirk'
(NEFA 1994.018.13).
