Trail West are a band that have firmly established themselves as one of the leading lights in the vibrant scene of Scottish traditional music. Embracing a spirit that brings the dance culture of Scotland's west coast to life, they create a modern, punchy sound that has its roots firmly planted in the traditional Celtic music scene. Trail West's line-up showcases impressive instrumental talent and the kind of ensemble synergy that comes from years of performing together at dances and festivals across Scotland and beyond.
Having started out as a four-piece band from the Hebrides—comprising of two sets of brothers—in the early 2010s, they have enlarged their setup to include further musicians as they embraced a broader musical canvas. Among their lauded discography, their more recent releases like "Countless Isles and Endless Miles," and "From The Sea To The City," exemplify their evolution from a covers band performing at local dances to a group producing original compositions and deft arrangements that resonate with modern resonance while honoring their traditional roots. "Rescattermastered" and the single "One That Got Away" further showcase their versatility and commitment to keeping the Gaelic musical tradition alive in a contemporary context. Trail West's music is characterized by the infectious rhythms and melodic prowess that has the power to connect deeply with listeners and ignite audiences into dance.
