Anne Martin, also known as Anna Mhartainn (born 1963) is a Gaelic singer from the Isle of Skye whose performances explore and celebrate her cultural heritage through music.
[1] Gaelic song was part of her life since early childhood, where traditional music played a significant role.
[4] In 2017, Anne Martin collaborated with Jason Singh to create Ceumannan – Footsteps 2 as part of a project commissioned by Atlas Arts.
The pair were then funded by the same organisation to visit India where they explored intercultural responses to landscapes and storytelling as well as the harmonic traditions of Indian and Gaelic music.
Together they developed a new music piece entitled Routes, which they performed under the band name Lahira with Joe Harrison-Greaves at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig during the Skye Festival in July 2017 and at Celtic Connections in Glasgow in January 2018.
