Bachué (pronounced bash-ooey) combines the much-admired musical talents of Corrina Hewat and David Milligan, whose respective backgrounds in traditional Celtic, jazz and folk music create a unique and inspiring sound.  After forming in 1995 they have since gone on to take festival audiences by storm nationwide, becoming one of the hottest properties on the Scottish music scene. David, as one of the leading forces of the Scottish jazz scene, has developed a unique crossover into traditional music with jazz, Cape Breton style accompaniment and his own inimitable sound.  He also lectures at the Strathclyde University-based National Jazz Institute.  With an Honours degree in Jazz, Contemporary and Popular Music, Corrina’s inspirational source now embraces her own tradition. Their respective commissioned compositions, premiered at The Highland and Celtic Connections Festivals, have earned them a host of plaudits and they are increasingly in demand amongst promoters looking for something new and different.
