A critically acclaimed debut album, a host of sell out concerts across Scotland as well as performances alongside some of the best acts on today's folk scene signals only the start of things to come for Barluath.

"One of life's great pleasures is witnessing the creation of something new. So has it been with Barluath. I've had the pleasure of watching these talented players coming together as a band and sharing their individual fortes to create this unique ensemble. They breathe new life into old songs and tunes and bring new compositions to the table with great flair and passion. " Phil Cunningham

"I never get tired of saying, with this band, our tradition is in very safe hands." Liz Clarke: from the Danny Kyle Showcase concert. 18th January 2013.

"One of the countries' best piping acts." The Daily Record

They've already been hailed as one of Scotland's best up and coming acts and over the summer of 2013 Barluath have been out on the road selling out venues and stunning audiences all over the UK. They have released their first album "Source", which was produced by Phil Cunningham, and have opened for acts such as Manran, Seth Lakemen and Ross Ainsley.

With a Mod SIlver Pendent Winner, a BBC Young Traditional Musician of the Year Finalist, a debut on BBC Alba’s Horo Gheallaidh and rave reviews of their first album, Barluath are one of the most diverse and exciting folk acts in Scotland.
