First taking place in Glasgow in 1994, Celtic Connections has grown into one of Scotland's largest music festivals - attracting well over 100,000 people to hundreds of concerts every January.
This year's event runs across the city from January 16-February 2, featuring the best traditional Scottish music, alongside international folk, roots and world music artists.
Here are 10 events which caught our eye and still have tickets available.
9. EMEL
For something a little bit different, head to the Oran Mor to see Tunisian singer-songwriter EMEL at 7.30pm on Thursday, January 30. has released a steady stream of intense, revolutionary music. On her newest album, MRA, meaning 'woman' in Arabic, "EMEL deconstructs to rebuild, boldly pressing forward her vision of a female-driven paradigm shift in a world in desperate need of one". It's a multi-genre meld where African trap, batucada, Arabic reggaeton, hip hop, and drum n’ bass rub shoulders seamlessly with vibrant melodies and empowering lyrics sung in five different languages and three dialects. | Contributed
10. BODIES
The Mackintosh Church is perhaps the most charming and atmospheric venue used for Celtic Connections, and on Friday, January 31, at 7.30pm, it will be hosting BODIES. The eight-piece vocal ensemble are led by Berlin-based Australian singer, songwriter and producer Kat Frankie. Their a cappella performances make the heart soar. Support comes from Greek folk courtesy of Con’tylia. | Contributed
