Fergus McKay learned his craft touring Europe, busking and collaborating with musicians from all sorts of cultures and backgrounds. His award-winning songs blend the ideas and flavors harvested from these experiences into a unique, quirky, and refreshingly original style. Fergus has been described as "brilliant" in the Sunday People newspaper, and a former London Records exec described him as "Harry Bellafonte meets Cockney Rebel at harmonica junction." Grammy award-winner Joan Armatrading invited him to support her on her recent tour.
Fergus has played in over 30 countries at every level from street performance right up to appearing at Sziget festival, the largest in Europe. In the 90's his band Tripp were signed to Sir Harry Cowell's label PMW records, and Fergus co-produced their EP with Edwyn Collins (Never Met A Girl Like You Before).
The debut album "Ever The Forager" released in 2015 features a collection of 13 songs written, developed, and arranged during Fergus's time as a street musician, and it displays a great variety of influences and styles.
