Andy Mallarkey, Edinburgh-based cellist

About Andy

I'm an Edinburgh-based cellist playing for a number of bands, both on a long-term and sessional basis.

At the moment I play for K-Lab and Columcille Ceilidh Band on a long-term basis. 

I have played for many other bands and artists on a sessional basis including Amplifico, Donna Maciocia, An Elegy, Azadeh, Douglas Kay, Salute Mary, Ting Jin, Slowjet and Tracey Braithwaite at different times.

In December 2011 I performed with The Weatherfolk at their Christmas "Give It Away" concert - we also recorded a Christmas carol - see Recordings below. 

In November 2011 I was part of a band that wrote and performed the music for Brecht's play The Caucasian Chalk Circle at Bedlam Theatre.

I have also been lucky enough to have performed support slots (with Donna Maciocia) for KT Tunstall and Nizlopi.
