Emerging from the vibrant melting-pot of Glasgow’s 21st-century folk scene, Treacherous Orchestra take Scottish dance music into a thrilling new dimension. Having grown up under the influence of such pioneering fusion acts as Shooglenifty, Martyn Bennett and Croft No 5, they draw simultaneously on deep traditional roots and contemporary influences.
Featuring bagpipes, whistles, flutes, fiddles, accordion, banjo, guitars, bass, drums and percussion, their repertoire consists almost entirely of original tunes. They combine ferocious energy and sophisticated musical arrangements with explosive results and have earned a fearsome reputation as an incendiary live act.
