The final episode of Seirm Celtic Connections was filmed in 2022 during the festival in Platform, Glasgow. Presenter Mary Ann Kennedy welcomes a diverse cast list of musicians, including a second appearance by Blue Rose Code, a band who blend Celtic soul, jazz, and rock to winning effect. The focus of the band, songwriter Ross Wilson, channels energy into the songs resulting in transcendental performances.

A welcome addition to any stage, the popular Fara have eclipsed their Orcadian musical roots and have played in venues everywhere, from the Stromness Hotel to the Royal Albert Hall. Here, the quartet – Jeanna Leslie, Catriona Price, Kristin Harvey and Rory Matheson – showcase music that has won them a following around the world. Also on the show is Belfast-based musician Brìghde Chaimbeul, who has set the piping world alight with her innovative style and collaborations. Here Brìghde appears with Fin Moore, the musician and instrument maker, and an early mentor of Brìghde.
