Over the years the Tannies have been trailblazers for Scottish music, and their tight harmonies and powerful, inventive arrangements have won them fans from beyond the folk and Celtic music scenes. In 2018 they released their18threcording, Òrach (Golden in Gaelic) to celebrate their 50th anniversary, and in 2019 they were nominated for Folk Band of the Year and Album of the Year in Scotland.

As they tour their 52ndyear, they are firmly established as one of the premier groups on the concert stage; from reflective ballads to foot-stomping reels and jigs, the variety and range of the material they perform is matched only by their enthusiasm and lively Celtic spirits.

This is more than just an event you dont want to miss; its an opportunity that might never come again. So be there to witness the legendary Tannahill Weavers when they perform at Sundilla on Thursday, October 29.
