Harpist Meredith McCrindle was in Northern Colorado for a few weeks this winter, visiting her parents on an extended trip away from her transplanted home in Ayr, Scotland. For a portion of the trip, her close friend Jai McDowall joined her - his first time in Colorado. I met Meredith when she was at our Rotary Club one morning, promoting her upcoming concert with Jai in Fort Collins. She agreed (and voluntold Jai) to come on the show, and it was a lot of fun!
Meredith’s album, When Walls Speak, is a study on Dumfries House - home to King Charles when he’s in Scotland, and where she has been resident harpist for many years. She’s also resident harpist for Trump Turnberry, Glen App Castle, Culzean Castle and more - if you need an amazing harpist in Scotland, or around Europe and the world, you’d be wise to call on her. She’s also the founder of a festival called Tamfest, a serial entrepreneur, and a business consultant!
Jai McDowall grew up in music, and performed on stage with his father going back to his teenage years. After he won Britain’s Got Talent in 2011, his life changed forever - and he caught amazing traction during his first year. When he went independent however, he had much to learn. Equipped with Meredith’s friendship and insights for business, he’s crafted an extraordinary world-ranging career from those first opportunities, and he’s a great case study on how talent alone - isn’t enough!
Inspiring and entertaining as always, and this time with one of the world’s most famous harpists, plus a friendly baritone with a fun Scottish accent. Enjoy.
