Albannach

[RoyalBlu4]

@surreal443

I have no doubt of his character. I think you mistook my meaning. When I say barbarian, that is a *gooood* thing. The way he dances around to the music, and the hair flinging and the sweat and muscles.. Mmm. Gimmie. =)

He truly enjoys the music with his entire being. He's the best.

[SACCopE7]

Clan MacFarlane; great music you guys rock it Scottish style! Best I've ever heard, instant fan! Loch Sloy!

[RachelMcGrayne]

I love the old videos with Kyle. He was quite the showman. I love all of them.

[OrliChic83]

God do I miss Kyle!!

[dlrmo6370]

Proud to be Scottish! Clan Cumming!!

[CloudLevi]

@dlrmo6370 Clan McLeod! No shit, gram's surname was Lewis!

[InfoGladiator]

Look at Davy back there. He's the coolest guy. He played snare for a small pipe band in WV that I was in. He does sculpting, poetry and write children's books. I would have never thought lol. His accent was so thick and scottish everytime he would talk to me at practice I'd just be like "Yeah, uh huh" and not know what he was saying lmao!

[tehdarkknight]

Saw them today at the Ohio Renaissance Festival, they were AMAZING.

[TehMinecraftNewb]

@tehdarkknight same, sunday? i was in the back :D

[ticketforhealth]

[Rainmaker65]

If you're going to the Ohio Renaissance Festival in 2011, Albannach will be there for ONE WEEKEND - Oct. 8 and 9. @Fergus1922 - You said it, dude! I'm going that weekend so I can hear them and get more music! Albannach, I look forward to hearing you later this year!

[Bigfurry1975]

Dude, These folks need to pay a visit to the Irish-Scottish festival in Green Lane PA.

[PawnSacrific3]

The song sounds like a variation of the theme from Last of the Mohicans, cool stuff.

[GrandmotherSpider]

@PawnSacrific3 it is.

[GrandmotherSpider]

@PawnSacrific3 The song that they are playing was actually put in to the Last of the Mohicans theme song. As Deutzeinachser said it's a song called "The Gael". All in all...tis a grrrrrrrrrreat song!

[Deutzeinachser]

what is the name of this song?

[ThrashEagle]

@Deutzeinachser "The Gael".

[Keifer113]

6 Englishmen dislike this.

[RoyalBlu4]

The guy on the far right. He's a complete barbarian. <3 Send me over a baker's dozen of him, please! :::swoon:::

[GrandmotherSpider]

@RoyalBlu4 LOL!! Be still my ancient celtic heart. woo!

[burntsoup]

@RoyalBlu4 Had my eye on him for years. If only more men were like this.

[surreal443]

@RoyalBlu4

My band opened for Albannach this weekend and they are FANTASTIC! BTW your guy is far from a barbarian.I had a long convo with him and he is one of the most deep and gentle men I have ever met.

[rabindarkhorse]

[RaisedAesSedai]

I can't wait to see you guys in PA in Feb. Amazing music guys and lady!

[sundimented]

Where do I get to see these guys? Yorkshire....they must tour there 6 million people waiting. Leeds would be good!

[jennmurph21]

Seen them in Ohio this past weekend. Wow! I was in awe. Great band. Hope to get to see them again.

[JabJabCrossRightHook]

[aBsYz]

[CyBeRLucKsteR]

WONDERFUL!! SOUL STIRRING MUSIC!!!

[TheSelchie]

[vickiehill1]

I was at this one!! Pennyslvania Renaissance Faire? Amazing group!!! That's my long dark-haired hottie Jamie on the right with the tats. They are so awesome!! I'm half Irish, half English...and a wee bit Scot-TESH!! They really rock the crowd!!

[Ed0303]

[wuzzl1991]

[LanguageLuo]

Wonderful! This is certainly the best of the best sonnerien (musicians) for dancing KOST AR KOAD in Brittany, France. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven eight. One, two, three, four, five six, seven, eight. One, two... Excellent.

[Ascaidh]

Albanach gu maith

[TheThunderWarrior]

Long tive Scotland!

[PUBSHAMROCKS]

CELTIC PEEPS RULE ON PIPES!!!!!

[mod1949]

[kattkamano]

Yeah, that's the party! Gooood, they are amazing! Keep on guys!!

[wvitalianchick82]

[elle4tanka]

[elle4tanka]

[MrBenSampson]

I saw these gies performing at a renaissance festival in Maryland. I bought one of their albums.

[iamearthbornami]

nice*****peace

[UnakaWaholi]

This is good music!

[klrrmk]

How can I buy there CD's?? This shit is Fn SWEET!

[blacksheepac]

I believe you can get all their downloads on Celtic Downloads.

[Waholiunaka]

This rocks!

[Spaceshipcomputers]

theme from last of the mohicans...the gael

[deathbybagpipes]

I saw them at a festival over the course of several weeks, and they played the exact same 3 tunes over and over again...not very impressive. The drums are what make the band. I had a chance to meet Donnie though, and piper to piper, he's a good guy.

[thadrine]

Just saw them at the Ohio Ren Fair....awesome!

[stupidshitsucks]

The Pipe band I just got kicked out of (I was a "bad boy" I guess....Cairngorm Pipes & Drums of WARMINSTER, pa (U.S.A.) plays this but can't come close to this fantastic performance! Just saw these guys here in the U.S.

[itsnoneofyourconcern]

I saw Albannach live one time.  I loved what I heard.

[Fergus1922]

Spectacular performance! Seeing this band live should not be missed.

[GORRRILLA]

@Fergus1922 Funny...my mom (72) joined in a little mosh pit when they played Estes Park 2010. Very entertaining

[312Jonathan90]

I love this music!!! greetings from germany^^

(does anybody know what the name of that song is?)

[AdventureSwede]

The Gael, I think it is.

[123eschof]

i cant find this on itunes

[AdventureSwede]

I dont use itunes, so I dont know where to get it.

[BrightestGreen]

It's because it isn't on itunes. I asked them after their show at the merch table if their music was on itunes. Davy said "No lass, we aren't on itunes." he laughed. :/

[123eschof]

ok thanks :) but there on last fm on stuff like tht but arewell

[sciabbicotu]

w Scotland free!!

[msiperek]

Primal is a good word for it. It make you feel like fighting the Huns!

[powerfulnun]

good lord it awakens something primal in you and you feel excited by the drumming down deep. it's ten times better in person though. I wanted to jump their bones. (except the lass)

[bluedrgnMethy]

That amazing!

[cumara0seadog]

slainte mhath!!!

[esurlo]

Fantastique, on l'a dans le sang, et on l'aime , ou pas ...c'est selon

[TheBangka]

I found, but the sounds of different

[mekshopa]

The tune is called "The Gael",composed by Dougie MacLean...The Albannach version can be found on their album "Eye Of The Storm"

[TheBangka]

I have 2 albom, but i can't find this track

[mekshopa]

I believe it's Clannad-Gael

[TheBangka]

What this track? where I can download it

[apascottevil]

buy their cd off their web site

[sweetnoelle94]

I LOVE ALBANACH! ive seen them in concert so many times. and me and the bag piper talked alot at this festival and i got to stand in the front row at 1 of their concerts, it was amazing!!

[kaljan]

i love this tune

[DJHulkHusky]

hint hint hint.......theres really only two people in this whole group doing anything.

the dude playin pipez and the fat drummer lol.

boooooo.

Albacock more lol

queerz

[rollobluster]

DJHulkHusky, DJ stands for dick jerker by anychance

[DJHulkHusky]

.........Disc Jockey im pretty sure.

you know, the title of the dude spinning the music in a club where the real bitches are at.

these fagz dont get any play

[rollobluster]

Well i am pretty confident from your dumb comment that disc jockey you are not. I would say more....Dick Jockey...the rider of dicks.

Yes the piper and "fat drummer" are the backboneof this song BUT any "DJ" with any ear for music and sound would realise that the other band members change the sound of themusic with their input (or at times lack of) for example the 1:28 mark. Any good DJ wouldnt make stupid comments as yours as they would appreciate all music and the subtle changes within it.

[sputnikapotoraki]

...arripiglt!

[dunbima]

Excellent music, just need to find cd so can play it more often!

[essentiel100]

ich liebe die schotten und ihre musik

[KONTRASST]

awesome

[Nobellybutton111]

I saw them in concert today (they in played thirty minute intervals three times) And they were freaking awesome!

[BethmooraRaven]

Hi! I'm so glad to have found your vids!!!!! Have you got any of them playing Rout of Moy!!! That one gets me every time!!! ;) xxx

[Mathilda90]

WOHOOOO!!! These guys give me goosebumps every time! FAN TAS TIC!

[B1GN01S3]

Fucking. Awesome.

[Xaayeno]

Amazing <3 Love it

[SpearTheAlmighty]

These guys are freaken awesome. I also have a vid of them.

[roxasloverninja]

i miss living in lancaster PA cause they always played at the PA renfaire which was really close by

[FriarTuck1961]

Excellent!

[warlord880]

I love this kind of music.

im getting all pumped up while listening to it XD

[saorpatrol]

Heyho Albnannach!!! Great to see you guys are still keeping busy and rippin it up as usual. Looking forward to seeing you all again during the Edinburgh festival.

Chick Allan

[reorourke]

It would be awesome to put together a cultural music/drumming performance showing the influence of the drum over different cultures. For example, this awesome band Albannach could stand toe to toe with a Japanese Taiko drum ensemble.

I wonder - what other cultures have drumming like this in their music?

[TheShadowfox]

YES!!!

[NCdeerkilr]

That is pretty damn good!

[Thesquashblossom]

I met these guys today at our local renn faire and seeing them play live and meeting them blew my mind.

War music, indeed.

I listen to metal and punk when Im feeling rowdy and Ive never heard somethign that made me want to either go get in to a wre4stling match or have rough- well you know- like their music.

Jamsie (long haired) is crazy silly.

[Spncr313]

POG MO THOIN, I"M IRISH

[akaJoo]

now thats just rude, have a nice day :P

[cumara0seadog]

Spncr - For reasons as this are we subdued nations. Friend, don't let hatred divid us. We need unity to stand when tyrants tread.

[bombergun]

god am so glad am scottish born and bread in the hills of this land !!!!

[Blitzbane]

Oh yeah, they're awesome, but a recording is nothing compared to seeing them live. And unless their clothes are specifically suited to it, most people don't like dancing when they're in faire garb (mine weighs in excess of 60 pounds), but it's really really hard to stay still in Albannach's audience!

[Stvmulligan]

Saor Alba

Love the music...love the country

yes I like Albanian music, some serb..but Cretan I do like-pure ethnic, but you can change my mind it is always open.

[Caldella]

Incredible band. 15 minutes of their music was enough for me to want to buy their album. I love how much effort they put into their playing.

[FinestHourFilms]

They are the single most powerful band you will ever see on stage. This is what makes Scotland great!

[itsablack1]

I don't know about that?

[cosmos1505]

Saw these guys n gals at Maryland Renaissance Festival yesterday...AMAZING!

[localpendulum]

These guys Were at Renn Fest!!!!!!!!!!! Damn it was suppose to go, but noooooo. My friend Told me about them and i had no clue how to spell it. Now she told me again and well their awesome. Totally fits in Renn Fest. Hopefully next year.

[Drachenglaube]

hey... it`s the soundtrack from..

LAST MOHICAN ^^

[localpendulum]

You damn right!!!! One of the best soundtracks ever (next to Brave heart, ok tied). Friend told me about them and as other message above, but Damn their good.

[ceanadach]

Yup,it's named the Gael actually,think Dougie Maclean composed it...

[progon60]

I`m an albanian and I love Albannach.

[irr678]

go scottish, what clan are you, im a robertson

[casperado666]

i'm ukrainian and totally love the band. i think that good folk-music has some secret ingredient, which speaks directly to your soul, to this indeginous primal-human in every of us, irrespectively where you are from.

Check this stuff here out some nice bulgarian folk.

watch?v=IZ4LCejQg8o&feature=re­lated

(the 1st song ownz)

watch?v=5kusKTKpQ_Y

(my personal favourite song (kinda bad quality though))

Is there something like that from Albania?

[elvishskills]

i saw these guys along with Red Hot Chili Pippers at an Irish Fest in East Hartford, CT. they are freaking amazing to watch live.

[CrossedWings89]

i saw these guys when we were on holiday in scotland. damn they were good! we bought their album and i still constantly listen to it. they are an excellent band!

[cnnrhgrty]

Coolio I was at the same place as y'all.

[FallenPast1177]

[finnichglen]

The Gael.........fantastic.....tha­nkyou....

[DonnyMacG]

We have Albanach at our wee swaries on a regular basis, the drumming is inspirational.

Gets us goin I suppose..

I was at the commemoration of the Battle of Stirling Bridge on Friday night, even better than the Bannockburn do.

Alba gu Brath

[camkyla]

Saw them Saturday at the New Hampshire Highland games. They get better every year!

[jrb51055]

its probably a GOOD thing that i DONT HAVE a cd for the truck, ya know?

"But officer, if you listen to this, you'd UNDERSTAND 120 MPH"

BUT i am willin to risk it. Where do ya get them?

[DarkNeko077]

Saw them at Long Peak highland Fest.

They're a great band. If you can see them in person. :))

It's great, you can feel the music.

[chrisaga]

LOL! The close up of Jamesie's feet were cracking me up! He is so funny (and incredibly sexy). This group is so AWESOME live! Saw them in Glasgow, KY last year, going to Eminence, KY this year to see them again. If you have a chance, GO!!!! You will not regret it.

[kpowers393]

My husband and I saw them in Vermont in Sept 2007- WOW AMAZING... we had just returned from a trip to Scotland and loved meeting them and seeing them play. I was blown away. While my folks did not enjoy it as much-hubby and I were rocking out:))) Everyone MUST see them live!

[chumpio123]

amazing music!

[daysfeellikemonths]

I love ALbannach! If anyone in Virginia wants to see them, the first weekend in October they are playing at the Rockahock Campground for the Williamsburg Scottish Festival.

[ecclecticragnar]

The Scottish blood in me burns with pride! Scotland forever!

[VuttelVult]

I'm not a Celt, but hell - I LOVE THAT!!!

In some cases even more than my national music :)

[vandy87peeko]

like any other scotsman, this makes my heart swell.
