The band

Born on Tiree. Made for the stage.

Founded in 1999 by Angus MacPhail and Andrew Stevenson, Skipinnish take their name from the place on the Isle of Tiree where Angus grew up. More than twenty-five years on, they are one of the most loved names in contemporary Celtic music — and a band best experienced live.

What they say

“Atlantic Roar is the perfect example of what Skipinnish are all about, and why you need to see them live – they’re a class act, their music is outstanding, and they’re darn good fun.”
Stuart Milne — Views from the Circle
“Skipinnish took Shrewsbury Folk Festival by storm this year presenting their high energy Celtic music alongside superb vocals and brilliant musicianship. Our audience loved them so much we invited them back for a second year. This is one of Scotland’s finest bands.”
Alan Surtees — Shrewsbury Folk Festival
“There’s a certain expectation about a Skipinnish release that you’re going to get a mixture of cracking tune sets and songs, either in Gaelic or English, which range from sensitive to anthemic. This album certainly doesn’t let you down.”
Gordon Potter — The Living Tradition
