Old Blind Dogs

Since forming in the early 1990's, the Old Blind Dogs have stood on the cutting edge of Scotland’s roots revival. The band has developed its own trademark style with energetic mix of songs and tunes. Dynamic percussion, polished vocals, soaring fiddle and stirring pipes fuel the delicately-phrased melodies and traditional songs. The Dogs now sixteen years old have release over ten albums and have toured extensively around the globe.

(Evening News).



“The Old Blind Dogs play with a compelling energy and intoxicating rhythm, players and audience seem to share a wild ecstasy of emotion.”

(The Scotsman)



"Old Blind Dogs have mastered the tricky art of innovating within a musical tradition while faithfully revealing its essence."
