BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year 2023, Amy Laurenson is a pianist from the Shetland Isles currently based in Glasgow.

Rooted in the traditional music of Shetland, Amy explores the music of her homeland alongside traditional and folk music from Scotland, Ireland and Scandinavia. Growing up surrounded by classical music, she has developed a style which ebbs and flows between traditional, classical, and jazz influence. This diversity of influences has resulted in a vision which challenges the role of the piano as a solo instrument in traditional music.
