Soul for a Compass is the debut album from accordionist Amy Henderson. Inverness based, Amy is a respected music performer and tutor in the Highlands where she teaches accordion and works on various community projects, as well as performing regularly throughout the Highlands and beyond.

Soul for a Compass represents Amy’s musical journey to date, which has taken Amy from her Kiltarlity home to Plockton School of Music Excellance and University Newcastle folk degree. The album has a blend of traditional song, tunes and compositions and highlights Amy’s musical talents and her capabilities as one of the Highland’s most accomplished accordion players.

“Music has led me down a path of joy, love, acceptance and learning. Performing and teaching music has enabled me to work and play with many inspiring and talented folk, whom I regard as dear friends and have shared lots of laughter and fun times with. I am so grateful to my family – growing up I was surrounded with all kinds of music, always encouraged to follow the path I have been guided too, and I truly believe I am on that path now. ‘Soul for a Compass’ represents the beginning of my journey, guiding me to where I am today.” – Amy Henderson
