<description><![CDATA[Roy Gullane and Phil Smillie have formed the core of the Tannahill Weavers for decades, writing energetic traditional Scottish and Celtic Folk music. Their work is intense and rhythmic, with many great musicians lending their skills on flute, bagpipe, fiddle and guitar.

<description><![CDATA[Silly Wizard has been a cherished traditional Scottish Folk group since their self-titled debut appeared in 1976. While their chosen moniker may raise some questions, they have absolutely nothing to do with <i>Lucky Charms</i> breakfast cereal. Blending the ancient melodies of their rich heritage with modern pop arrangements and updated techniques, they perform an authentic collection of Scottish and Irish reels and ballads.

<description><![CDATA[The Old Blind Dogs formed in Aberdeen, Scotland in 1990 as part of a new movement of roots revival bands. Playing souped-up Scottish folk (thanks to diverse instruments including the Balkan bouzouki), the group was quickly catapulted to the top of the scene. Despite their popularity, the group's gone through multiple line-up changes over the years, losing veteran singer and guitarist Ian F. Bentzie in 1999.

<description><![CDATA[Bagpipe blaring and fiddle flying, the Battlefield Band have been a pillar of Scottish traditional music for more than 30 years. Prolific recording artists, the quartet have changed their lineup over the years but have always maintained strong voices and group harmonies. They sing classic folk tales from highlands and lowlands.

<description><![CDATA[Playwright, poet, and songwriter Ewan MacColl was almost single-handedly responsible for the folk resurgence that hit Britain in the '50s and '60s. His notion that a country's residents should embrace the music of that particular country led to England's first folk club strictly for English Folk back in '53. His music dealt with a mixture of traditional ballads and his own spare songs sung in his pliant and distinct voice. He is best remembered for tracks like "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" (the Roberta Flack version) and his marvelous "Dirty Old Town" (the Pogues version) as well as his strict adherence and total dedication to the idea of traditional folk music.

<description><![CDATA[As the founder of Dunkeld Records, an independent label that's been home to some of the genre's most acclaimed newcomers, Dougie MacLean appears to be the lynchpin of the modern Scottish Folk scene. MacLean has been a creative force since the mid-1970s, contributing to the preservation of Scotland's musical heritage while doing time with seminal bands Silly Wizard and the Tannehill Weavers and releasing a steady stream of his own solo material. A talented singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, MacLean specializes in evocative, pastoral songs that celebrate the beauty of Scotland's landscape as well as chronicle her triumphs and tribulations.

<description><![CDATA[Jean Redpath is one of the end-all-be-all translators of traditional Scottish folk songs. Her delicate soprano voice is as light as air, but carries with it the strength of a storm. Since the late 1970s Redpath has lectured on the history and lore of Scottish folk music at Stirling University in Scotland as well as at Harvard and Weslyan University in Connecticut.
