Cliar in Concert - 19th & 25th November 2005
One of the most beautiful sounds in 21st century Scotland – The List
Arthur Cormack, Hector Henderson, Ingrid Henderson, Mary Ann Kennedy, Maggie MacDonald and Ross Martin
Featuring some of Gaeldom's very finest singers and instrumentalists Cliar (pronounced "Clear") are a sixpiece band who have developed a unique closeharmony vocal sound backed up by an instrumental powerhouse.
"Cliar's founding aim is not only to champion Gaelic music but to ginger up its image, aligning the ballads for which it is best known with tongue-twisting puirt a beul numbers, rousing work-songs and sparkling instrumental sets. Their success was evident in the show's diverse, beautifully executed set-list." - The Scotsman
"The Highlands and Islands supergroup brings you heaven without the inconvenience, as it were, of having to travel to the other side. They're that good." - The Herald
