ABOUT

Beinn Lee are a six-piece band from Uist in the Outer Hebrides. 2021 saw the release of their anticipated second album DEÒ, following their 2018 debut album OSGARRA. Both were produced by Ross B. Wilson, member of widely popular Scottish band Tide Lines. Described by renowned piper Fred Morrison as “a breath of fresh air”: “the feel of the Uist music runs beautifully throughout and the sensitive vocals and top drawer musicianship add up to one of the most exciting musical prospects I have heard in a long time."

 

Formed in 2013, the band are rooted in the west coast style of traditional music. The collective inheritance of Gaelic song and west coast pipe music of members Micheal Steele, Pàdruig Morrison, Mairi Therese Gilfedder, James Stewart, Anna Black, and Seoras Lewis provide a very strong Gaelic traditional backbone to their music, but their music of contemporary and self-penned tunes and songs are infused with diverse modern influences. 

 

The band have performed a wide variety of gigs from the beginning including festivals across Scotland, as well as in France and Belgium. The band have twice supported Skipinnish, including once at the famous Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow, as well as supporting Trail West there also in 2023. 

 

2024 has been another busy year with appearances at Skye Live, Tiree Music Festival and Eilean Dorcha Festival, as well as the release of another original song ‘Home Below the Ben’. 

 

2025 will see the realise of album number 3.
