Peatbog Faeries
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Peatbog Faeries are a celtic fusion band. Formed in 1994, they are based on the Isle of Skye, Scotland.
Their music embodies many styles and influences, including rock, jazz, electronica, and folk - but their main influence is traditional celtic music. The band's unique sound is created through a mix of programmed effects and traditional celtic arrangements, played on bagpipes, fiddles, and whistles. The Faeries draw heavily on more traditional Scottish bands such as Silly Wizard, The Tannahill Weavers, Capercaillie, and, most notably, Shooglenifty.
