NAE PLANS Shortest Street in The World
Thank you to The Mackays Hotel, Wick for letting us film on their doorstep at No.1 Ebenezer Place – the ‘World’s Shortest Street’ according to the Guinness Book of Records! Couldn’t resist The Shamen reference (as children of 90s dance music!). The tune is Allan MacDonald‘s stunning ‘Cille Pheadair’ waltz which has surely got to be a worthy candidate for Scotland’s shortest tune.

NAE PLANS The Italian Chapel, Orkney
Thank you to John Muir and the Chapel Preservation Committee for allowing Nae Plans to film in this stunning location. Nae Plans’ fiddler, Adam received much of his musical training in his youth with Inverness Cathedral Choir, and so this beautiful ‘Missa Brevis’ (short mass) tune just happened!
