Bio
What are Skerryvore? They’re like no one else. Epic of melody, intimate of feeling and plugged into the roots of Scotland but blasting out to the world.
Three time winners of Scotland’s ‘Live Act of the Year’ award, Skerryvore have evolved from humble beginnings to become one of the country’s leading forces in a thriving live music scene. At the forefront of a movement that has reinvented Scottish traditional music for modern, multicultural audiences, the band have brought high-energy performances to audiences across the globe—from West Coast Scottish halls to festival crowds in the USA, Canada, Australia and throughout the UK and Europe.
With a mix of bagpipes, fiddles, accordions and whistles alongside guitar and vocals, underpinned by driving bass, drums and keys, Skerryvore represent the best in contemporary Scottish traditional music. Their seven studio albums demonstrate the wide range of influences the individual musicians bring—a unique fusion of folk, trad, pop and rock that produces musically expansive, immersive yet intimate sets that captivate audiences worldwide.
