His work spans the arts, heritage, and Gaelic language sectors, and he is committed to developing and promoting Scotland's cultural heritage and diversity - nationally and internationally.
He is the Director of the Traditional Music Forum of Scotland and the North Atlantic Song Convention. Brian was appointed to be Scotland's first Gaelic & Culture Officer working for Creative Scotland and Bòrd na Gàidhlig (2010-2024).
Tha e na urram dhomh cànan agus dualchas nan Gàidheal a bhrosnachadh gu h-ionadail, gu nàiseanta agus gu h-eadar-nàiseanta.
Tha ùidh mhòr agam sna ceanglaichean a th' ann eadar na Gàidheil agus cultaran eile air feadh a' Chuain Siar, gu h-àraidh Alba, Èirinn, Canada, agus Lochlann.
