Described as the best band to come out of Scotland in 100 years, this eight piece includes members from Capercaillie, the Peatbog Faeries, Boys of the Lough and Fiddlers’ Bid. The band’s balance of their instrumentation; four fiddles ranged against guitars, piano, accordion and drums brings a multi-layered sophistication and creates a rich panoply of harmony, countermelody, cross-rhythms and complementary textures to their unbeatably rambunctious jigs, reels and jaggy Balkan-style dance tunes.
