Already something of a legend in the time honoured fiddle tradition of Scotland; Paul Anderson is widely regarded as the  finest Scots fiddler of his generation. Although only in his forties, he is already something of an icon in Scotland and with his many performances for the Royal family over the years many now refer to him as “the Kings Fiddler”

In the tradition of many of Scotland’s great fiddlers, Paul is a composer of some repute, having composed over 300 pieces in the Scots style. His music provided the theme tune for the film Red Rose about the life of Robert Burns, Paul composed and recorded the theme music for the PBS television show, Tartan TV,in the USA and he was the musical director for HMT Aberdeens critically acclaimed production of Sunset Song by Lewis Grassic Gibbon. In 2008 Paul performed at a private reception for Prince Charles at Fyvie Castle to celebrate Prince Charles' 60th birthday and in June 2010 he performed at an 80th birthday party in Edinburgh Castle for Sir Sean Connery at the request of the Scottish Government.
