Ruairidh and Allan went to Bennicassim festival just to see them. It’s one of those grower albums that is impossible not to love it after a repeat listen, and the set they played at the festival was a ripper too. One of the stand-out albums was WhoMadeWho’s self-titled debut. Coinciding with the time when we were all beginning to drive, these CDs obviously ended up on repeat in the car as we bummed about the island with the ever-present crate of Tennents on the back seat. On the lead up to the 2006 Skye Music Festival (another rite of passage for us), one of the local filling stations stocked up on CDs of all the acts that would be appearing at the festival.

This album almost single-handedly took our musical interests in a new direction, although it didn’t completely destroy rock & roll for us Ruairidh remains a massive fan of Guns N’ Roses and Iron Maiden (even though they’re pure shite).

Skye has produced its fair share of influential acts Runrig, Injuns and Peatbogs to name a few, but Mylo perhaps grabbed our generation more than any other. Both sets of speakers are still going strong 10 years down the line, so the noodle month was definitely worth it, although we’re convinced it contributed to Ruairidh’s hair thinning. The production on this album is still some of the best on any record we've heard and as a band we frequently re-visit it for inspiration. It was undoubtedly worth it though just to hear Apparat’s Walls album in all its glory. This allowed Ruairidh and Innes to head straight for the shop and tear through an entire month's rent money on two pairs of studio monitors cue a month living off Lidl noodles. With this came the expansion of our minds, but more importantly, the expansion of our wallets thanks to student loans. Just sayin’…Īfter leaving school we all moved to down to Glasgow for university. Should they ever decide to gig again, we would be first in line to offer our services in support. We don’t think anyone has matched Croft’s ‘DIY but polished’ sound and feel since, and it’s that which gives this album so much character. Attention All Personnel as an album however, is truly unique. 5, who in turn will cite their own influences. We find it funny when people comment on how unique our sound is, as in our minds we are somewhat following in the path of the likes of The Peatbog Faeries and Croft No. Welcome to Dun Vegas remains as one of the most influential albums to us, and the Peatbogs a firm favourite live act! Up until this point we were more used to ‘unplugged’ ceilidhs, so to be in a jam-packed sweaty crowd, with the Peatbogs crammed on stage, as the kick came in on Wacko King Hako was completely mind blowing.

Get in touch to see how our entertainment options could be perfect for you on such an important occasion.With that in mind, we ask the four-piece what music has influenced them over the years, and after much debate they agreed that whatever made the list "all four of us agreed that it was amazing, and we all had to have actively listened to it, repeatedly." Boards of Canada, LCD Soundsystem, Craig David and Arcade Fire didn't quite make the cut and a "special mention must also go to each of the three Moderat albums," which they "were going to include but ran out of space!"Įdinbane Festival on Skye, which ran through the mid-2000’s, was an annual jaunt for us that coincided with the start of the summer holidays, and our first taste of the festival scene (as well as our first taste of a hangover). If you would like to add some more lights or a stage - get in touch! Additional Hours of entertainment are also available on request.Įvery event is special and different in its own way.
