One of Scotland’s premier trad bands! Their fiery instrumentals, rich vocals, tight harmonies and powerful, inventive arrangements have won them fans from beyond the folk and Celtic music scenes.

“The music may be pure old time Celtic, but the drive and enthusiasm are akin to straight ahead rock and roll.” —Winnipeg Free Press

Their diverse repertoire spans the centuries, from reflective ballads to foot-stomping reels and jigs. The variety and range of the material they perform is matched only by their enthusiasm and lively Celtic spirits.

“Formed from a Paisley pub session in 1968, seminal trailblazers the Tannahill Weavers now also rank as national treasures.” —Glasgow Celtic Connections 2018

In 2011 the band was inducted into the Scottish Traditional Music Hall of Fame, and in 2018 they released their highly acclaimed 50th Anniversary albumÒrach (“Golden” in Gaelic) on award-winning label Compass Records, followed by the well loved Celtic holiday celebration Solstice in 2024.

As they approach their 58th anniversary, the Tannahill Weavers are firmly established as one of the premier groups on the concert stage. From reflective ballads to footstomping reels and jigs, the variety and range of the material they perform is matched only by their enthusiasm and lively Celtic spirits.

“...as close to perfect as it gets in an imperfect world.” —Sing Out!
