From their foot-stomping reels to their heart-warming delivery of songs, there can be no doubt why Breabach has become a household name for many on the folk and roots music scene.

Nominated in the Scots Trad Music Awards for 'Best Up and Coming Artist' in 2006 and 'Best Folk Band' in 2007 and 2008, Breabach's huge sound includes the twin Bagpipes of Calum MacCrimmon and Donal Brown, who also alternate between flute, whistle, bouzouki and step-dance.

This uncompromising force is complemented by the extraordinary fiddle playing of Patsy Reid and is further supported by the charismatic yet propulsive guitar playing of Ewan Robertson, named BBC Young Traditional Musician of the Year 2008.
