Daimh - Gaelic Supergroup and un-challenged champions of straight in the eye Highland music - take to land and sea this summer to promote their highly acclaimed new album; The Hebridean Sessions.
Formed around the turn of the century and taking the name from the Gaelic word for "kinship" Daimh (pronounced Dive) have taken their contemporary take of Highland and Gaelic music to over 20 countries, setting audiences alight from Moscow to San Francisco.
With a reputation as giants of the Bagpipes and Fiddle, Angus Mackenzie and Gabe McVarish lead the melodic powerhouse with fellow founder member Ross Martin underpinning the groove on the Guitar. The Band are joined by "new guy" Murdo "Yogi" Cameron on Mandola and Accordion to complete the instrumental line up.
Daimh have always had the renown and notoriety of working with some of the finest Gaelic singers in Scotland and the current line up only serves to cement that distinction with the addition of the Gaelic firmament's most rapidly rising star, Ellen MacDonald on vocals.
Recent accolades include "Folk Band of the Year" " at the 2015 Scottish Traditional Music Awards and last year's award for the "Best Folk Band in Europe" at the prestigious Folkherbst competition in Germany.
