With an ethos built around traditional Celtic roots, Manran combine fiery tunes played on instruments including the fiddle, accordion, flute, uillean and highland bagpipes which combine with a powerful rhythm section awash with elements of funk, jazz and rock.

The band’s 2011 debut single Latha Math heralded a meteoric rise to the top of the Scottish music world that quickly saw them playing many of the most prestigious festivals in Europe despite having only been in existence a few short months.
