Shooglenifty

Malt Room Standing
For more than 35 years, Scottish group Shooglenifty have pioneered their fiery and infectious fusion of traditional Scottish folk music, beats, basslines, electronica and alt rock, creating a distinctive sound they call ‘acid croft’. Across nine studio albums, tours spanning the globe, boundary-pushing collaborations and a reputation for exhilarating live performances, they have amassed a devoted global following and become one of Scotland’s most distinctive musical exports. Following the loss of founding member Angus R. Grant in 2016, Shooglenifty reshaped its line-up with Kaela Rowan (vocals, percussion and ukulele) and Eilidh Shaw (fiddle) becoming integral to the band’s musical chemistry. The subsequent arrival of Ciarán Ryan (banjo and mandolin) and Euan McLaughlin (bass) alongside founding members James Mackintosh (drums) and Malcolm Crosbie (guitar), has helped forge a revitalised line-up that reaches a new creative peak on Stamina Island, the band’s pivotal tenth studio album.
Stamina Island is an exuberant celebration of endurance, longevity and joie de vivre. Released on 18 September, the nine original tracks are alive with the band’s trademark vitality and imagination.
