quickbeam band

Quickbeam are named after a type of tree (the Rowan family, green-geeks), a tree that apparently has positive influence over the negative and is sacred to those who worship it (in mythological language anyway). It seems a fitting moniker for this duo, Monika and Drew, from Glasgow and Aberdeen. They have performed at Glasgow

Peatbog Faeries

Hailing from the Isle of Skye, the Peatbog Faeries are one of the leading bands in the new interpretation of traditional Scottish music.
Crossing so many genres that they become extremely hard to define. A good effort (one of their own I think), is psychedelic bagpipe funk.
Not to be confused with 'tartan techno'!
