"One of Scotland's finest traditional bands returns to the Camden Opera House on March 21, at 7:30 p.m., all the way from Edinburgh," said the Opera House, in a news release.

Born of a session in Paisley, Scotland, and named for the town's historic weaving industry and local poet laureate Robert Tannahill, the Tannahill Weavers have made an international name for their special brand of Celtic music, blending the beauty of traditional melodies with the power of modern rhythms. 

"Their diverse repertoire spans the centuries with fire-driven instrumentals, topical songs, original ballads and lullabies, and humorous tales of life in Scotland," said the news release. "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 2011 the band was inducted into the Scottish Traditional Music Hall of Fame, and in 2018 they released their highly acclaimed 50th Anniversary album Òrach ("Golden" in Gaelic) on award-winning label Compass Records, followed by the Celtic holiday celebration Solstice in 2024.

Roy and Phil are joined by Iain MacGillivray and Alistair McCulloch; piper and fiddle player Iain is involved in such high-profile productions as Outlander and Men in Kilts, and Alistair teaches at the prestigious Royal Conservatoire of Scotland when not on tour.

"As they approach their 58th anniversary, the Tannahill Weavers are firmly established as one of the premier groups on the concert stage," said the release. "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."
