Eabhal

Eabhal have made a significant impact on the Scottish music scene with their vibrant and energetic folk music.

The band’s distinctive West Coast sound and dedication to their craft have earned them a prestigious Folk Band of the Year nomination in the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards 2022 amongst multiple other awards and nominations over the past 10 years.

Eabhal have released two albums to date, the debut This is How The Ladies Dance in 2018 and the second Aisling, released in 2022, showcasing an array of arrangements of Gaelic and English songs. The band’s focus on kinship and connection to people, land, elevation and language are all reflected in their music. Although they all come from different backgrounds and places, each member was immersed in traditional music, and their collective passion for their craft is evident in every song and performance.

Eabhal’s achievements in their career include the successful releases of both their albums, taking them on extensive tours to stunning locations throughout the Highlands, Scottish Isles, and much of Europe. Additionally, the band has been fortunate enough to showcase their talents at World Music Asia in Shanghai and perform at various shows in the US in 2018.
