GAELIC ROCK BAND, LÀN CHOMAIS

We are absolutely delighted to say that our Gaelic Rock band, Làn Chomais, will be releasing their debut single on Thursday 7th December. The song is a brand new Gaelic Christmas song called ‘S e Nolloag a th’ ann! (It’s Christmas!) and, as well as the band, it features backing vocals from over 1000 pupils!

All of S1, 2 & 3 here at Greenfaulds were recorded, as were every pupil in Condorrat Primary and in Baird Memorial Primary.  The track is phenomenal and is somewhat of a departure for traditional Gaelic song!

Làn Chomais are;

Emily Robertson – Vocals / Piano

Jessica Muir – Fiddle

Eilidh Miller – Clarsach

Ava MacKonnon – Drums / Flute / Vocals

Craig Yule – Guitar

Jacob Spence also guests with the band on Bass for this track.

‘S e Nollaig a th’ ann! Will be available from Thursday 7th Dec for download from ITunes, Amazon, Google and Spotify. If enough people download the song we may just have a GHS band in the Scottish Christmas Download Charts!!!!
