The Band

Fullsceilidh @ The Tall Ships, 2011

We’re a group of talented Shetland musicians, who release our high octane maelstrom of feverish melodies on audiences throughout the islands, and beyond. We have a Shetland fiddle driven line-up, backed by a multi punch-packing rhythm section. Our repertoire is drawn from our own Shetland tradition as well as Nordic and Celtic influences.
