Music show presented by Mary Ann Kennedy and Dòmhnall Eòghainn MacKinnon. This episode features sets from Deaf Shepherd, The Local Honeys, Gráinne Brady and Lahira.

Air a lìbhrigeadh le Màiri Anna NicUalraig agus Dòmhnall Eòghainn MacFhionghain. Chaidh Seirm a chlàradh aig àm fèis Celtic Connections anns an Fhaoilleach, 2019. Anns a’ phrògram seo chithear measgachadh ciùil bho chlàran Celtic Connections 2019. Bha fèill mhòr air a’ chòmhlan Deaf Shepherd ann an saoghal ceòl traidiseanta nan 90an, agus ionndrainn mhòr orra nuair a chur iad cùl ris. A-nise a’ tighinn còmhla às ùr, ’s e fiughair mhòr a tha a’ feitheamh orra air Seirm, agus iad a’ toirt leotha grunn luchd-ciùil chun an àrd-ùrlair a bha aig aon àm mar phàirt den chòmhlan. Tha iad a’ dearbhadh nach do dh’atharraich an tarraing a bha annta agus iad cho comasach air iomadh traidisean às gach ceàrnaidh de dh’Alba a chur an ceann a chèile.

Presented by Mary Ann Kennedy and Dòmhnall Eòghainn MacKinnon, Seirm was recorded during Celtic Connections in January 2019.

In this episode, the much-missed band Deaf Shepherd, who cut a swathe through traditional music in the 90s. Newly reformed, the group makes an eagerly anticipated appearance on Seirm with an extended cast list made of the many musicians who passed through the Deaf Shepherd ranks. The band proves that their years apart haven’t removed their lustre or musical heft, and this performance comes with sparkling displays of musicality.

Malky’s Reels, Maggie Cameron’s and Spice of Life are just three musical treasures from a wide collective repertoire built on combining traditional songs with newer works. On this showing, Deaf Shepherd remain a musical tour de force, adept at combining traditions from all corners of Scotland.
