A band of Celts in rain sodden Scotland making music about Canadian sunshine in a tune that has a French name and it's wonderful to hear.

[@sistahsunshine]

😂

[@natewilson111]

Celtic equals Scottish, and 22% of Canadians are French. So, yeah, absolutely insane

[@emilywhite7212]

Such a good song, it puts a smile on my face everytime I hear it! It has an air of hope about it!

[@tommybelanger8192]

Then you may like French Canadian (Quebec) music :) The first tune played is called Aire Mignonne. Which means "Lovely tune" in french. If you want some other tunes of the same kind, just let me know :)

[@danielroy185]

Des pièces comme l'air Mignonne de Simon Riopel y en a pas d'autres dans ce style au Québec et c'est normalement joué en vielle !

[@Ptitnain2]

Ça doit être quelque chose en vielle.

[@gerardekkel1700]

I would! It sounds lovely! :) (no pun intended!)

[@daragildea7434]

You don't even know what the word Song means.

[@riktich]

only listened to it 45 times today

I LOVE IT! What an awesome sound you create! Please keep it up! I think these are my favorite instruments in the world. Uilleann pipes are SWEET! They are way too rare in the U.S.

[@guitarisator]

This music is very good !

[@erniebailie9772]

[@jacobsgranddaughter]

❤️❤️ love this song!❤️🙏

[@gabrielsvastha7807]

Amazing Song

[@richardjames7905]

Oh what a find. This group has longevity. They have the same kick start as the first Solas or Lunasa recordings. I am lucky. I will have an opportunity to see them live in the summer. Hopefully by then there will be a CD to purchase.

[@blipblip88]

Nice tune. Well rehearsed and performed. thanks

[@jean-francoisbertrand6027]

great ! from Canada

[@concretecullen]

Awesome stuff lads, keep the tunes coming.

[@jessicatendoesschate5165]

I'm so glad you're a Glaswegian band, maybe I'll get to see one of your gigs soon. Wonderful fiddle inspiration. I just checked your gig list though - play in Edinburgh ffs! please. thank you.

[@nancychace8619]

Good song! I like their playing. Lol - learning to speak French would be a whole different ballgame. I've learned a little bit before, but always get it mixed up with Spanish when I get excited. The listener has to maintain a sense of humor 🙂

[@BIGMOUTHLOUIS]

haha!

Happy music!

[@GypsyWagonTV]

Very enjoyable. Thanks for sharing!

[@berniekilbride]

What a fantastic, spirited, talented, and well-arranged set. As noted below reminiscent of early Lunasa, but frankly as well played (if not better) and much more contemporary. Hope to see (some of ) you at the Isle of Man Irish Trad weekend (Oct 2017), failing that L'orient festival. Brilliant!

[@dainforsythe7129]

Nice transition(s), lads!

[@pablo_brianese]

Great music. I'm subscribing to the channel.

[@danielomalley4394]

French Canadian trad music was heavily influenced by the Irish and Scottish traditions. Indeed, jigs and reels are a staple here in Québec!

[@explorer1968]

Stop the clock, if you will, but never stop the music!!!

[@jasonsummit1885]

At first glance I thought that was a guitar, but no, it's even better. A guitar body bouzouki.👍
