Breabach with Beolach

A thrilling collaboration uniting two iconic bands, Beolach (Cape Breton, Canada) and Breabach (Scotland). Their long term dream of sharing the stage was realised at the Celtic Colours International Festival in 2019 where, as co-artists in residence, they delivered a series of jaw dropping performances, fuelling the fire for more future collaboration. These powerhouse bands are united in respect for their shared culture and heritage and bring their love of Gaelic song, stepdance, Highland Pipe and Fiddle tradition to life with a raucous energy.

This event is delivered in partnership with the University of Strathclyde, as part of their Diamond Jubilee programme.  Celebrating the University’s unique contribution to the world since the granting of a Royal Charter in 1964, the Jubilee explores Strathclyde’s innovative approach to education and research and the institution’s impact on society over more than 225 years since its foundation in 1796, as well as looking to the future and the next chapter of the Strathclyde story.
