    Alasdair Fraser is an incredible Scottish fiddler, as is Brian McNeill. I get to hear them at TSF every year. Such a treat!

    Andy M. Stewart, formerly of Silly Wizard, is a wonderful singer & song writer.

    I'm not sure if anyone mentioned
    Capercaillie
    Battlefield Band
    Fiddler's Bid
    Malinky
    Dougie Maclean
    Ally Bain
    and the list goes on...

    Smithfield Fair is out of Baton Rouge.

    Some of the lads who were formerly of The (Scottish) Rogues formed Scottish Mayhem earlier this year. More great rocking pipes!

    It's such a joy to have so much wonderful music available, but I'll be never able to buy it all & afford to eat, much less be able to buy more kilts for my lads.

    new to my shelf, recent purchases in the last month are:

    Capercallie Grace & Pride the Anthology 2004-1984 (just LOVE Karen Matheson, pleasing to the eye and the ear!)

    Lasairfhiona Ni Chonaola
    , An Raicín Álainn (The Beautiful Comb) a lass from Inishere, sean-nos style, beautiful!

    Wicked Tinkers, Whiskey Supper, that was free, the lads sent it to me.

    The Rogues, VO, brilliant album, nice version of Bonny Portmore and Cullen Anderson

    John McLean Allan, Stand Easy, good piper.

    Catherine Ann MacPhee, Sůil Air Ais - Looking Back, from the Western Isles I believe.

    Silly Wizard
    , Wild & Beautiful.

    I'm waiting on the new album from Dochas and an album of Adiemus.
    No wonder I can't afford more kilts! but music is life and celtic music compliments the kilt perfectly.

    I can confirm that The Rogues are the same as the Rogues of Scotland & The Scottish Rogues.

    Tono, have you heard Milladoiro http://www.milladoiro.com/ ? They are from Santiago de Compostela.

    Bravo to Valencian Kilted for mentioning Hevia, and La Boutinne Souriante (the Smiling Boot). Didn't see the Galician band Milladoiro listed. Likewise some female vocalists like Susan McKeown, Mary Black, Mary Jane Lamond, Karan Casey (formerly of Solas), and Connie Dover. Tim O'Brien has great Celtic and Celtic-influenced music on some of his recordings, so I'd advise those with interest in same to look through his catalogue. Lunasa was mentioned, I hope? Boys of the Lough . . .Wolfe Tones. . .Shooglenifty . . . Jura Ceilidh Band . . .the late Stan Rodgers . . . some of Garnet Rodgers tunes

    Gordon Duncan absolutely kicks a$$ on pipes. . .

    I'll have to look through my collection for more suggestions. Some rather obscure, but with some great tracks.
