Ged nach robh an c貌mhlan c貌mhla ach beagan bhliadhnaichean sna 80an, bidh iad fhathast a' tighinn c貌mhla corra uair. Cleas Planxty, Horslips agus Am Bothy Band romhpa, bha ce貌l na Moving Hearts 霉r agus eadar-dhealaichte cuideachd. Bha an dreach ci霉il aca air a bhonntachadh air 貌rain 霉r agus chuir iad am blas fh猫in air ce貌l traidiseanta. Thug iad buaidh air ginealach 霉r de luchd-ci霉il air feadh an t-saoghail.

Irish band Moving Hearts return to the Celtic Connections stage in a concert special. A capacity audience in the Old Fruitmarket gave a warm welcome to D贸nal Lunny, Davey Spillane, Noel Eccles and bandmates.

Together for only a few years in the 1980s, the band still performs occasionally at select concerts. Like Planxty, Horslips and The Bothy Band before them, Moving Hearts made music that was pioneering and innovative. Their musical style was based on original songs and they put their own spin on traditional tunes. Despite their all-too-brief career, they proved hugely influential on an entire generation of musicians all over the world. Support for Moving Hearts comes from a number of special guests in the form of NeXo, a new musical project that connects musicians from all over the world. Band members are drawn from Argentina, Galicia, Uruguay, Wales and Scotland, including Megan Henderson, Finlay MacDonald and Celtic Connections director Donald Shaw.
