Old Blind Dogs
"Old Blind Dogs bring freshness and colour to acoustic music steeped in centuries of Scottish folklore and history." - The Los Angeles Times
Since forming in Scotland in 1992, ‘The Dogs’ have stood on the cutting edge of the Scots roots revival. The band has developed its own trademark style with an energetic mix of songs and tunes. Dynamic percussion, polished vocals, soaring fiddle and stirring pipes fuel the delicately-phrased melodies and traditional songs.
"The Old Blind Dogs play with a compelling energy and intoxicating rhythm," says The Scotsman, “...as players and audience seem to share a wild ecstasy of emotion."
Twenty-seven years is a long time in the life of any band and most who reach those milestones are content to rest on the tried and tested formulas that have worked in the past. Not so for Scotland's Old Blind Dogs whose newly released ‘Room With A View’ takes them once again bravely in many new directions.
