Bold, creative, and original; Tannara have established themselves as one of the UK’s most interesting and unique contemporary folk groups.
Since the band’s formation in 2014 they’ve covered considerable musical ground. With a background in Scotland’s native traditions, their ceaseless musical development is a melting pot of ideas, genres and sounds: from indie rock to electronica, as well as Scotland’s vibrant and diverse folk scene.
Unafraid to experiment, their music is an electrifying meeting place for a world of sounds: punchy and clean, riotous and gritty, tender and honest. On fiddle, harp, guitar, accordion and vocals, Tannara make an intensely considered musical world which is uniquely theirs.
Their 2016 debut release, Trig (produced by Rachel Newton), and 2019 sophomore, Strands were both released to great critical acclaim, whilst touring highlights have included the Cambridge Folk Festival and Festival Interceltique de Lorient amongst many others throughout the the UK and abroad.
