The Scottish/Irish traditional group have announced a string of dates across the UK for February and will take on Gairloch Hall on February 15 and Plockton Village Hall on February 16.

The tour dates have been reschedules from 2021 due to covid restrictions, but can finally go ahead.

The band, made up of Paul McKenna, Robbie Greig, Conal McDonagh, Conor Markey and Ewan Baird, were dubbed "the best band of their generation" by The Living Tradition.

In 2019, their fourth album Breathe was released and the five piece plan to continue to dominate the traditional scene in the future.

Singer and songwriter, Paul McKenna, is looking forward to the upcoming tour.

He said: "We’re so pleased to be hitting the road again after all the plans that were put on hold due to the pandemic over the last couple years and we can’t wait to take to the stage in Gairloch.

“The tour covers venues old and new as we prepare to get back to more regular live performances, with a focus on home. We’re really looking forward to getting out there and performing, it will be so great to connect with our fans and put on some really great shows.”
