Playing a mix of traditional, contemporary, and self-penned tunes, their sound is spearheaded by Macaulay Ross on fiddle, whistle and bagpipe duo Dougal McKiggan and Finn MacPherson, reinforced by a strong backline consisting of Ben Muir on keyboard, Caetano Hayes Pelletti on guitar and Eoghainn Beaton on bodhran.

Taking their name from the Gaelic word for the seasonal act of burning heather, Falasgair formed in Glasgow and quickly blazed their way onto the folk festival circuit. Since their debut, the band has gone on to win Seall’s Na Fir Chlis Battle of the Bands on their home island as well as the prestigious Danny Kyle Award at Celtic Connections 2023. Most recently in 2024 the band won Up and Coming Artist of The Year at The Trad Awards.
