Joe Goodall and Abbie Gordon’s Enchanting ‘Secret’ Set Lights Up Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival’s Bothy Stage

Joe Goodall and Abbie Gordon’s Enchanting ‘Secret’ Set Lights Up Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival’s Bothy StageWe had  fair few surprise sets at the Bothy this year at the Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival , but none quite as enchanting as the “secret” set by Scottish singer-songwriter Joe Goodall. Joined on stage at The Tomatin Bothy by the talented 17-year-old Irvine native, Abbie Gordon, the session unfolded into a magical showcase of raw talent and heartfelt music.

For those unfamiliar with Joe Goodall, his music is a blend of soulful melodies and introspective lyrics that resonate deeply with audiences. Hailing from Stirling, he has been making waves in the music scene with his distinctive voice and evocative songwriting.

Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival has always been a platform for both established and emerging artists to shine, and Joe Goodall’s  set at The Bothy underscored this ethos beautifully. It was a reminder of the power of music to connect people, transcend barriers, and create moments that linger in the heart long after the last note fades.
