About
Skerryvore are a Scottish Celtic rock band from the Isle of Tiree in the Inner Hebrides, founded in the early 2000s by brothers Daniel and Martin Gillespie. Now an eight-piece based in Glasgow, they weave bagpipes, accordion and fiddle into a rock and pop framework, and have grown into one of Scotland's most popular live acts. Their 2023 album Tempus topped the Official Scottish Albums Chart and broke into the UK Top 10.
