Bho Dhòrn gu Dòrn (Bannal)

Bannal is a Glasgow-based group dedicated to singing traditional Gaelic waulking songs. They take the songs back to their original context, producing a sound close to the original archive recordings. Eight of the women take turns in the role of leader, keeping the sound of the vocals varied and interesting. The rest of the women form the chorus for the response, sometimes adding in sounds of excitement in response to the lyrics of the songs. The rhythmic beating is prominent, as is required for authenticity, but not so overbearing as to cover any of the wonderful vocals.

Bannal - Musicians

  • Kenna CAMPBELL, Catherine FLETCHER, Christine GRANT, Wilma KENNEDY, Mairi MACARTHUR, Chrissie MACINNES, Maeve MACKINNON and Mary C MACLEAN : vocals
