Gaelic vocal group Sian<\/strong> have announced their highly-anticipated second album, \u2018araon<\/strong>\u2019. The first single from the album, \u2018Seo a\u2019 Bhliadhna<\/strong>\u2019, will be released on Friday<\/strong> 30 May 2025<\/strong>. The song is a traditional lament with connections to the Isle of Skye and Raasay, and particularly the MacLean family. \u2018Seo a\u2019 Bhliadhna<\/strong>\u2019 features guest musicians James Lindsay and Charlie Stewart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The album is produced by Sian\u2019s Innes White <\/strong>and Innes Strachan<\/strong> (Niteworks, LUSA), and was recorded and mixed by Iain Hutchison<\/strong> at GloWorm Recording<\/strong>. The release date for the full album is yet to be announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eilidh Cormack says, \u201cSeo a’ Bhliadhna <\/em>is a beautiful lament, closely connected to the Isle of Skye and Raasay song tradition. The composer tells of love and loss in a terrible year \u2013 grieving not only her brother and sister, but the man she loves, the golden-haired hunter. We wanted to approach the song with respect and care, and I hope listeners can feel that in the arrangement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ahead of the album release, Sian will tour Scotland in June 2025<\/strong>, performing new material live for the first time. Tickets are available at sianmusic.com\/tour<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
