We recently posted about the nominees for the Scots Trad Music Awards 2010. The winners were announced at Perth Royal Concert Hall at the weekend with a lot of fans getting excited over the award given to Malinky for Scottish Folk Band of the Year as well as Joe Aitken grabbing Scots Singer of the Year award.
