Snake-hipped fiddle-toting Highland front man Angus R Grant still rules the roost after a quarter century, but he has been joined centre stage by fiery young mandolinist Ewan MacPherson and ‘puirt à beul’ vocalist Kaela Rowan.
It’s a potent mix that has invigorated a band that still retains four of its original members: Angus, Garry Finlayson on electric and acoustic banjo, Malcolm Crosbie on guitars, and James Mackintosh on percussion. The line up is completed by Quee MacArthur who provides the funkiest bass riffs this side of Philadelphia.
Shooglenifty’s skill at fusing exquisite traditional sounding tunes to devilishly dirty rhythms is unsurpassed, and, thanks to their globetrotting adventures their rich back catalogue of influences flows from everywhere from Rajasthan to Russia, Brittany to Brisbane, Ghana to Glenfinnan.
There will be dancing. There will be a licenced bar.
