Ùrlar is the fourth instalment from the Scottish folk band Breabach. The name translates as ground and the music on this album was collected and composed by the band from friends, family and local musicians that have had an impact on their lives and music.
Hi Ho Ro Tha Mi Duilich
A 19th century emigrants song. Composed by Donald Morrison of Valtos, Uig on the Isle of Lewis. Having had to leave his home for Canada, he speaks fondly of the island and the people, with real longing for his homeland.
The haunting strains of twin bagpipes have become a defining signature of Breabach – a chiming herald of Scottish folk being embraced by a new generation. They are often described as the new faces of Scottish Traditional music. The energetic five-piece deliver a thrilling and unique brand of contemporary folk music and those who have seen their live show will see why the group has earned international recognition on the world and roots music scene as one of the UK’s most dynamic and influential bands.
