Grace Morton is a Glasgow based singer-songwriter. Her playing and creating is rooted in her childhood growing up in Trotternish on the North West Coast of Skye where where singing and playing instruments were as important as any other subject in school and at the heart of community life. She learnt guitar from her dad and followed in his footsteps as a songwriter. Since an early age Grace has honed this craft - drawn to writing songs with a focus on honesty, storytelling, place and emotional connection. 

2026 is shaping up to be an exciting year for Grace. She plans to record her debut album at Lamigo Bay Studios with her band in Summer following a successful crowdfunding campaign supported by Creative Scotland's Match Funding Initiative. Having reached her initial target, she is now working towards a stretch goal that will bring her closer to meeting the full recording budget. With festivals and self-organised shows in the pipeline, and Grace now working as a musician with Live Music Now Scotland, she looks forward to spending as much of the year as possible sharing her music across the country.

Grace’s music sits within a contemporary folk landscape, shaped by both her island upbringing and her instinct for intimate, reflective songwriting. Whether performing solo or with her band, she is known for creating a sense of closeness in a room – valuing connection over scale, and finding equal meaning in small, quiet spaces as in larger. 

Grace has spoken and sung in Gaelic since starting school, and continues to build an ever-growing repertoire of Gaelic song - many she learnt as a child from teachers and members of the community. Singing these songs, and sharing the stories behind them, always brings her home. In recent years, she has begun writing in Gaelic too – a natural and exciting meeting point of her influences. A self-penned Gaelic song will feature on her debut album.

Over the past six years, she has performed sets at festivals such as Skye Live, Under Canvas, Eden Festival, Worthy Earth Festival and Celtic Connections. She has also had the opportunity to open for some of her favourite artists including Rachel Sermanni, Rhona MacFarlane, Hannah Rarity, Salthouse, The Deep Blue, Hushman and Lewis McLaughlin. 

Alongside regularly supporting other musicians, Grace has independently organised and toured her own shows—embracing the warmth and enthusiasm of house concerts, intimate venues, and larger community-driven spaces that champion independent music.
