THE NICHE FAMILY: The Niche Family, originate from Rutherglen, Scotland and Toronto, Canada. Former members of the Glasgow Freak Folk ensemble, The Hoojamamas, brothers Stuart and Andrew Neil joined up with Lauren Thompson to form the band following an impromptu jam session that arose from the celebration of Stuart and Lauren’s wedding in 2021.
The trio focus on close vocal harmonies and strong songwriting drawing from Folk, Americana and Country influences.

Recently, The band has expanded their lineup to include Aberdeen folk singer Adam Thom on banjo and Paisley born multi instrumentalist Timmy Alan enriching their live performances. They have just completed their debut EP due to be released in 2024.
