Dougie MacLean is considered by many to be Scotland’s pre-eminent singer-songwriter and is certainly one of the country’s greatest musical treasures. Described as “a musical hero” (Wall Street Journal), MacLean is renowned for the uniqueness of his meaningful, haunting and emotion-filled music.

From his home base in Butterstone near Dunkeld in the beautiful Tay Valley, MacLean tours the world with his unique blend of lyrical, ‘roots based’ songwriting and instrumental composition. He has built an international reputation as songwriter, composer and extraordinary performer which has led to concerts and festivals worldwide including New York’s Carnegie Hall.

His songs have been covered by hosts of artists and his Caledonia has become one of Scotland’s most popular contemporary songs. His music has been used in Hollywood films, such as Last of the Mohicans, TV Drama, including BBC’s A Mug’s Game and he has been the subject of three BBC TV music-documentaries.

A Dougie MacLean Band concert offers a full, rich and varied musical experience, mixing Celtic and electric instrumentation and weaving magic around songs from his recent album Inside the Thunder as well as older, much-loved songs. “All members of the band are multi-talented, switching instruments effortlessly. A concert experience not to be missed!”

A Scottish phenomenon. With his exquisite guitar style, expressive voice and honest performance, his songs conjure up remarkably vivid imagery of our world. (The Performing Songwriter, USA)

It’s the music that pulls you in, a brilliant weave of sensitivity, a solid worldview and skilled and lively instrumental playing. (Vision Magazine, USA)
