Profile
A high-energy four piece blending Irish and Scottish folk with Americana and country. Featuring uilleann and Highland pipes, fiddle, bouzouki, banjo, and whistles, they deliver powerful tunes and singalong songs rooted in decades of experience across UK festivals and international stages.
A four-piece band based in Shropshire, bringing together the raw energy of Irish and Scottish traditional music with the rich storytelling of Americana and country. With roots stretching from Ireland and the Hebrides to the heart of rural England, their sound is both timeless and distinctly their own.
Each member is a seasoned performer, having played semi-professionally throughout their adult lives. With over three decades of experience in traditional music at the core, the group has graced folk festivals, respected Irish venues across the Midlands, and played internationally in locations including Ireland and the Algarve.
Their live sets are known for their vibrancy and range—mixing crowd favourites with lesser-known gems, and weaving powerful session tunes through soulful, singalong songs. A standout feature is the rare combination of uilleann and Highland pipes, adding a spine-tingling edge to a line-up that also includes bouzouki, whistles, tenor banjo, bass, and drums.
Perfect for festival stages and music venues alike, they bring passion, precision, and a deep connection to the folk traditions that continue to inspire and ignite audiences.
