June Imray

June Imray, The Torry Quine, is one of the most popular performers ever to encapsulate the humour of the North East of Scotland.

Brought up in Torry, on the south side of Aberdeen, June grew up in a community that, even within the city, is regarded as unique. Best known for its former fishing community, Torry has produced people with tremendous strength of character and most of all wonderful humour.

After graduating from the University of Aberdeen, June became the first BBC TV announcer with a Scottish accent. Not bad for a 'wee Torry quine'!

She returned home to become one of the best known faces on Grampian Television and decided to celebrate her North East roots by writing and recording songs and poetry that reflected the special humour of the people she had grown-up with.

The result was two albums and live performances to packed audiences throughout the North East. Those LPs sold-out many years ago - but this album contains the most popular material, which will be instantly recognisable to thousands, and much loved by a new generation..
