Inspired by their rich heritage of Celtic music and fired by the strength and vibrancy of today’s Scottish cultural scene The Battlefield Band has been at the forefront of a great revival in Scottish music. Refusing to be limited by the music business’ fashions, they have mixed the old songs and music with a new self-penned repertoire, all played on a fusion of ancient and modern instruments – bagpipes, fiddle, synthesiser, guitar, flutes, bodhran and accordion.
“…great songs, superbly sung, interspersed with magnificent tunes, played with blistering power and speed.”
