Slainte Mhath

Uptempo contemporary Cape Breton band with a whole new slant to their traditional sound. Rasping guitars, skreeling pipes and demonic percussion, all reeled together by some grand old tune sets. Step dancing, vocals, and huge enthusiasm give this band their special character which encompasses village hall style fiddle-and-piano classics and sporran-shrivelling electronic mayhem!
