I was there! It was absolutely amazing to watch them live! It was my first ever trip to a Faire and I've gone back every year since. Thank you so much for posting this... :D
Albannach is NOT CLANN AN DRUMMA in any way shape or form. There is a new band as the Joe Kilna Mackenzie passed away. This is a false claim. will be reported
The lady is Jacquie. Kyle on the main drum, Aya and Jamsie on the right, Davey in the back next to Jacquie and on pipes....Colin. These are their old tartan - new ones are blue.
I JUST SAW THEM LIVEEEEE in pleasonton a few hours ago. IT WAS WONDERFUL and i took some pictures with them. theyre all very amazing people and extremely kind and....handsome to say the least! haha!
@Narusayshi I was at Pleasanton and saw them, too! They were great! It was hard not to keep from dancing all day with the music there. So much energy!
i was so sad to find out that they dont have their great drummer anymore...i loved going to see them at the PaRenn faire...i havent been to the faire in awhile i miss it :(
but why do the guys where skirts? just one hem down the middle is all they need for some pants. they kind of remind me of chumba wumba and stomp mixed together.
@sifudancrawford SCOTLAND! If you are stateside, find a scottish shop for go to a festival. There is a shop in North Carolina by Grandfather Mountain.
They wore this as it is really versatile. It is basically like a blanket, so it can be used to sleep in etc and can be worn with the end tucked in the waist like here or the end can be thrown over the shoulder (stylised by the traditional image of a kilted bandsman) or over your head like a hood. Google Féileadh Mòr if interested
They are so freakn awesome to see live. I cant wait to see them again. They sot rock. It's not the same song over and over. If you truely listen to them you know how talented and amazing they are.
I had the opportunity to see Albannach in Edinburgh on the Tartan Festival in 2008 and I tell you. these guys are AMAZING. You can feel the energy, the power they transmit to everybody and everything.
I bought the CD and from the first to the last track nothig is bad. The CD finish and you still waiting more and more. I hope they still in this excellent mood and making new records. May be I will be the first Spanish fan for this band
They are cool as hell. I have some of their CDs. They sometimes perform at the Highland Games in Glasgow, KY & they invite people on stage to play with them sometimes. I had my tambourine & was dragged onstage. It was probably drowned by the drums but I didn't care. I was happy as a lark. I had blisters on my hands after playing.
they came to the hoggtowne renisance faire today and i fell in love with them...i had never heard of them before and my friend got me to listen to them...it was awesome...i got to meet all of the members and i absolutely love their spirit that goes into thier music!
I saw them last night busking in the streets of Glasgow. I must admit to hear them struck a chord in my celtic soul. I almost had an image of the ancient celts here charging against the might of rome. They have that war band on the rise feeling.
I saw them at the ky renfaire and had a great time watching them play. It's just too bad that the crowds at these types of events are usually very tame. I'd like to go to an actual concert of theirs where people aren't afraid to dance. I could get pretty wild at a concert playing this type of music.
I just saw these guys at the Maryland Renaissance Festival...AMAZING! I mean I have to admit they rock live, so if you have the chance, see them LIVE. That drummer is just too awesome.
GREAT performers, but the best thing about Albannach is how friendly they are! My daughter had her picture taken with all of the band about 10 times and they never complained or turned her away!
I see these guys nearly every weekend playing in Buchanan Street Glasgow as I live near Glasgow (Scotland). I had no idea that they played the Celtic Fling which I confess to have no knowledge of. We have loads of bands like these guys over here.
Albannach never fail to deliver. Just saw them again, Friday night, at Grandfather Mtn H.G. Celtic Music Jam. 3rd time I've seen em and they bring the f*cking mountain down every time.
Hello,ive you like this kind of music so i have to intrduce you two German Bands!One of them called SCHELMISH and the other one called CORVUS CORAX!!! You will love there Music!! Impotant is to hear many different Titels!
zakochałam się w tej muzyce:) jest poprostu cudowna:) mam cały jeden album i gdzie go nie słucham tam zawsze przenoszę się w inny świat:) twórzcie dalej taką muzykę:)
They performed at the Old English Ren Faire in Peoria Il at Jubilee College State Park the week before this show and were awesome. Everyone loved them. They were unbelieveable and had huge crowds at each show.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
They've got a pretty rockin' sound...but does anyone notice that there are only actually two musicians in this group? The tenors and the bodhran players hardly ever touch their drums, the guy on the right never; I think he's there just to swing his crazy hair and look cool : )
If you are going by this one Vid then you really must see them live. This group is awesome. When you see them live you will then understand what all the fuss is all about. FOR THE GLORY OF THE CLANNS, Jayson
Sorry if anyone got offended. I don't dispute the awesomeness of their sound; we're actually using one of their recordings for a fun highland choreography, which is why I was watching videos.... Some of those guys are extras, but that's just fun, really no offense intended : )
I`ve seen this group for the last seven or eight years at the highland game up at Loon Moutain in New Hampshire. And they are AWSOME. All the members of the group are cool to drink beer with.They play better when they have a little drink in them. There music is absolutly incredible.
