Breabach live at Celtic Colours 2019

This beautiful and energetic melding of instruments and Gaelic song brilliantly reflects the musicianship, traditional roots and contemporary influences of award-winning Scottish group Breabach. Featuring Calum MacCrimmon (bagpipes, whistle), Megan Henderson (fiddle, vocals), Ewan Robertson (guitar), James Duncan Mackenzie (bagpipes, flute), and James Lindsay (double bass), it was recorded during Celtic Colours International Festival at Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre on October 19, 2019.

That bagpipe duet towards the end is pure bliss!! 😍

Megan gets Prettier as time goes by. Great Scottish folk band. Ewan Robertson you are a lucky man.

I would love to see Breabach in person. Alas - I can't make their east coast tour this year (2024).

They are the pride of Scotland - land that I love - proudly cameron

Never forget, this was 2019! Jesus, what have they done to you for not being able to perform in public for so long. What have they done to us for not being able to experience what belongs on a live stage for so long. If the music wouldn't lift me up at the core of my heart, I'd lift my knees to kick all these [....] in the [....]. All the love from the Netherlands, you got one big fan here! Never forget!

hello, your music is awesome i love it. I am French I play bagpipes I would like to know could I find your sheet music for this music? Greg

[@staffanolofsson8201]

A fantastic tune played with so much skill and enthusiasm! Really wonderful how Breabach expand this beat to its maximum! And after half the tune it begins to sound a little Coldplay Viva la Vida? Or is it just me?

[@martinryan8101]

Huh - yes, I get why you say that about Viva La Vida. And you're right about it being a fantastic tune. So many elements, colours and textures. Absolutely love it.

[@staffanolofsson8201]

@@martinryan8101 The Coldplay association comes at 2:40 when Megan on violin plays almost the same theme as in Viva La Vida. But I think this a coincidence. And I love Breabach.
