Early Bird Registration Begins September 30

Presented by Dàimh in Partnership with Catamount Arts

Highland folk legends Dàimh will present a relaxed and informal atmosphere to learn, play and socialize with like-minded musicians. Workshops by day. Fast, slow and singing sessions by night. Food and accommodation available all under one roof.

Forging the sound of the New Tradition, Daimh are West Highland Music’s proudest exponents. event_daihm-mand.png Daimh, the Gaelic word for Connection, perfectly describes the electrifying musical interplay between the individual band members and portrays the interaction with audiences attending their breath-taking live shows around the world. It also translates as the connection to the deep musical well from which they draw their inspiration. On the Scottish music scene the name Daimh has come to represent a sound of a time and place a musical integrity that many strive to emulate.

Formed over 20 years ago the band have embodied the current wave of resurgence in Gaelic culture; the current line up includes younger musicians that have progressed through the thriving Feisean movement and Gaelic medium education system and joined the 3 remaining founding members to continue the cycle of the tradition. Recent achievements include receiving the MG ALBA Folk Band of the Year Award in 2015 and 2018 and passing the halfway mark on their career ambition of performing on every populated Scottish Island.

All levels and instruments are welcome!

Do you play an instrument but lack the opportunity or confidence to play with others? Anybody ever found joining in on a session an intimidating experience? Are you interested in developing your existing skills and breaking through to that elusive next level? Maybe you are more comfortable in a different style of music but would like to learn the mechanics and subtleties of a traditional session? Have you ever wanted to learn some Gaelic songs or sing the ones you know with some accompaniment or harmonies? If you answered ‘yes’ to any of the above then School of Dàimh presents the perfect opportunity to improve your session skills and repertoire with mixed instrument and singing workshops.
