about Runrig:
Runrig are a
Scottish Celtic rock group formed in Skye, in 1973 under the name 'The Run Rig
Dance Band'. Since its inception, the band's line-up has included songwriters
Rory Macdonald and Calum Macdonald. The current line-up also includes longtime
members Malcolm Jones, Iain Bayne, and more recently, Bruce Guthro, and Brian
Hurren. To date, the band has released fourteen studio albums, with a number of
their songs sung in Scottish Gaelic.
Initially formed as a three-piece dance band, which played wedding receptions,
the trio's first performance took place at Kelvin Hall, in Glasgow.[1]
Runrig's music is often described as a blend of folk and rock music, with
the band's lyrics often focusing upon locations, history, politics and people
that are unique to Scotland. Songs also make references to agriculture and land conservation.
Since 1999, the band has
gained attention in Canada, following Nova Scotian singer Bruce Guthro's entry
to the band. In 2016, the band announced that it would retire from studio
recording after the release of its 14th studio album, The Story.
