The strings, pipes and whistles of the Scottish folk quintet went global on an album that incorporates guests and influences from the Gaelic diaspora in Norway, Québec, Australia and New Zealand. Fittingly, the album’s title, Astar, translates as ‘Distance’ or ‘Journey’ and, without ever losing sight of their roots, Breabach’s bold voyaging is a rare and beautiful treat. A Top of the World in #117.
