SCOTTISH AMERICAN SOCIETY OF DUNEDIN
Presents
The Tannahill Weavers
in Concert
“The music may be pure old-time Celtic, but the drive and enthusiasm are akin to straight-ahead rock and roll.” – Winnipeg Free Press.
“An especially eloquent mixture of the old and the new.” – New York Times
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 unique brand of Celtic music, blending the beauty of traditional melodies with the power of modern rhythms. As one of the world’s premier traditional Celtic bands, their diverse repertoire spans the centuries with fire-driven instrumentals, topical songs, original ballads and lullabies, and humorous tales of life in Scotland.
They have recently been joined by exciting piper and fiddle player Iain MacGillivray, Scotland’s youngest Clan leader. Iain, a fluent Gaelic speaker, has worked on exciting productions like Outlander and Men in Kilts and has performed for many stars and dignitaries in recent years. As the band celebrates the nomination of their 18th recording, Òrach (“Golden” in Gaelic), as album of the year and themselves as a band of the year, they are firmly established as one of the premier groups on the concert stage.
ALL TICKETS INCLUDE A DAY MEMBERSHIP TO THE SCOTTISH AMERICAN SOCIETY OF DUNEDIN

As part of a week-long celebration of Tartan Week, join us for a spectacular and exhilarating tour of Scotland and uisce beatha: the “water of life.” You will taste whisky from the rolling hills of the Scottish Lowlands, from the fast flowing waters of the River Spey; from the spectacular mountains of the Scottish Highlands to the peaty moors of the Western Isles. The landscape of these four regions of Scotland is very different, and this is well represented in the wildly different tastes of Scotch Whisky. Of course, although the whisky and food will be as fine as it ever was, the key ingredient in all our whisky tastings is the people who attend. You, who appreciate the fine varied taste of Scotch Whisky. Click here for tickets!
