Early life

He was born in Oban and spent his early years in Inveroran, near Bridge of Orchy (hence his first album title). His father Billy was an accomplished musician, as is his mother Agnes, and his grandfather was the late Pipe Major Ronnie McCallum MBE, piper to the Duke of Argyll. At the age of four the family moved to Moffat in Dumfriesshire where Stuart went to school. The family moved to Inveraray, his mother's home town, in 1983.
