Bruce MacGregor, Sandy Brechin & Brian Ó hEadhra blend some of the finest musicianship and singing to come out of Scotland in recent years. The trio first performed together as the House Band at Hebridean Celtic Festival 2006 in Stornoway, Isle of Lewis. Individually they perform with their own highly acclaimed acts; Bruce in Blazin’ Fiddles, Sandy in Burach and Brian in Anam.
Bruce MacGregor, is probably best known as founder and driving force behind the multi award winning Blazin’ Fiddles. He also toured and recorded with the first incarnation of Gaelic supergroup Cliar. Taught by the great Donald Riddell, Bruce’s style encapsulates the finest points of Highland fiddle music – bold and rugged at times, lyrical and beautiful at others.
Sandy Brechin is one of the most popular accordionists in the country and is best known for his bands: Burach, The Sandy Brechin Band and his electric cèilidh band The Sensational Jimi Shandrix Experience. Born and raised in the village of Kirkliston, in West Lothian, Sandy is now based in Edinburgh, where, as well as teaching, recording and performing, he runs his own record company.
Brian Ó hEadhra (pron. Bree-an Ohara) originally from Dublin in Ireland, resides in Inverness in the Highlands of Scotland. Not only is Brian an accomplished traditional singer in Gaelic and English but he is also an acclaimed song-writer in both languages. He has toured the world over with his band Anam playing festivals, concerts, TV & radio. |
