Scottish firebands Breabach are one of the most talked about bands on the folk scene. Their innovative Celtic style features double bagpipes, flute, fiddle, song and Scottish stepdance. Expect to see and hear a brilliant show from some of the best 21st century traditional musicians.
'A young group performing with technical assurance and a feel for traditional idioms...Their raucous, driving attack is energised and exciting!' (The Scotsman)

Le Vent du Nord: Fiddle, accordion, hurdy-gurdy, guitar, strong harmony vocals and strong Celtic and Breton influences are all part of one of Québécois’ finest exports.
‘Le Vent du Nord are one of the hippest exponents of Québécois music. The quartet coaxed the crowd on to their feet.’ (The Scotsman)
