Skerryvore's music embraces many influences and genres - encompassing folk, traditional, rock, Americana and even the many shades of jazz!
Gettysburg College's Majestic Theater will welcome Scotland's sensational folk-rock band Skerryvore to the stage Wednesday, September 29 at 7:30 p.m. The band's performance marks the opening of the Majestic's 2021-2022 live Celebrity Series and the return of live performance to the historic stage for the first time since March 2020.
Skerryvore's music embraces many influences and genres - encompassing folk, traditional, rock, Americana and even the many shades of jazz! Together for 15 years this multi-talented group from Scotland's West Coast has traveled the world bringing their unique musical blend of fiddle, accordions, pipes and whistles, guitar and vocals - all underpinned by driving bass, drums and keys to concert halls, clubs and major festivals and has built up a large following wherever they appear
Just like the rest of the world Skerryvore's plans for 2020 disappeared, including the planned 15th anniversary concert, that was to reunite musicians and friends who have shared Skerryvore's journey, in the grounds of the stunning Inveraray Castle.
The band explored, developed and then presented alternative performances possibilities - including live streaming and virtual performances. They also produced and recorded, from home, their latest single "Everyday Heroes" - aided by a variety of musicians from across the country. The song reached #1 in the official Scottish charts. To date, they have raised several thousand pounds for NHS staff and charities. Now they are back in the USA for their 2021 tour.
