  • Kris Drever is Scottish contemporary folk musician, who came to prominence in 2006 with the release of his debut solo album, Black Water. Drever also plays in the folk trio, Lau, alongside Martin Green and Aidan O'Rourke. He is the son of Ivan Drever, a former member of Wolfstone. Before the release of Black Water, Drever had not considered a solo career. In an interview with Mojo, Drever states: [I had] been working as a guitarist for eight years or so and just did the odd solo spot. Various people said I should do solo work but I wasn't sure. John McCusker, who produced the album, harangued me about it. Then I was playing with Kate Rusby, filling in for Ian Carr, and she got me to do a song in the set. Tom Rose at Reveal Records saw me and asked if I wanted to do a record. It all went from there. A live DVD was released July 28, 2008 featuring Drever's set at 2008's Celtic Connections, and a collaborative release, Before the Ruin, was released in September - this record is also credited to both Roddy Woomble and John McCusker. Drever is set to begin work on his second solo album, due for release in 2009.
