An d猫idh toiseach t貌iseachaidh iongantach fhaighinn ann an saoghal a鈥� chi霉il ann an 2018, tha Peat & Diesel air ainm a dh猫anamh dhaibh fh猫in le na briathran aca agus na tha iad air a bhith ris bhon uairsin. Th貌isich an sgeulachd an uair a choinnich tr矛 Coves 脿 Ste貌rnabhagh (Innes, Uilly agus Boydie) aig an taigh gus craic a dh猫anamh air oidhche Shathairne, a鈥� cluich ce貌l le d矛reach an c霉 agus an cat gan coimhead. 鈥橲 e seo c貌mhlan 脿s an sg矛re a bha a鈥� seinn mu dheidhinn am beatha anns an oisean bheag aca fh猫in ach aig an robh buaidh mh貌r air m貌ran dhaoine taobh a-muigh na h-Eileanan an Iar. Bha luchd-leantainn 脿 Nis gu Newcastle a鈥� seinn na h-貌rain aca ann an taighean-seinnse 鈥檚 aig f猫isean agus th貌isich sluagh m貌r gan leantainn air na meadhanan s貌isealta. An uairsin, th脿inig am pandemic.

Chan urrainn dhan ch貌mhlan creidsinn mar a tha c霉isean a鈥� f脿s dhaibh 鈥� tha iad a鈥� dol bho neart gu neart bho th貌isich iad a鈥� dol air chuairt a-rithist is iad a鈥� gabhail an comhairle fh猫in bho loidhe aon na de na h-貌rain aca - 鈥渉itch your wagon to a star鈥�. Tha Innes, Uilly agus Boydie a鈥� gabhail 霉ine dheth bho na h-obraichean aca mar dealanair, neach-glanaidh uinneagan agus iasgair p脿irt-霉ine gus duais a thogail aig Duaisean Ci霉il na h-Alba, a鈥� gabhail an 脿ite ri taobh Rod Stewart agus taghadh de luchd-ci霉il Albannach eile. San t-samhradh, airson a鈥� chiad turas a-riamh, tha an c貌mhlan a鈥� nochdadh air 脿rd-霉rlar anns an Roinn E貌rpa aig f猫is chi霉il sa Ghearmailt.

After a stunning arrival on the Scottish music scene in 2018, the lyrics and antics of Peat & Diesel became the stuff of legend. The story began when three Stornoway 鈥楥oves鈥� (Innes, Uilly and Boydie) met up in the house to have the craic on a Saturday night playing music with just the dog and the cat watching. This was a local band singing about life in their own corner of Scotland that found resonance way beyond the Western Isles. Fans from Ness to Newcastle belted out their songs in pubs and at festivals while their social media following exploded. Then the pandemic came.

Beyond their wildest dreams, the band鈥檚 return to the road goes from strength to strength as they follow their own advice and 鈥渉itch their wagon to a star鈥�. Innes, Uilly and Boydie take a break from their lives as an electrician, window cleaner and part-time fisherman to pick up a gong at the Scottish Music Awards, taking their seats alongside Rod Stewart and a host of Scottish musicians.

Summertime sees the band perform in Europe for the first time at a music festival in Germany. Their sharp rise up the festival ranks sees them play to 20,000 people at Belladrum and culminates in their first festival headline slot at the Hebridean Celtic Festival.
