Co-commissioned by the Sound Festival, The Mariner's Daughter tells rarely heard stories of women's connection to the North Sea. Based on recent fieldwork recordings from interviews with women of different generations living in the Northeast of Scotland, this emotive ensemble piece weaves a rich texture of music, sound and imagery as it sets a course through an exploration of lived experiences.

Stories flow from oil rigs to lifeboats, from fish guts to family ties, from fleeting memories of times gone by to firm hopes of times to come, testifying to the power of the North Sea to shape our lives through both inspiration and tragedy. These are stories of ordinary women made extraordinary. Stories that speak of life, of love and of loss.
