About

Dàimh (pronounced 'dive') is a Scottish Gaelic folk band formed in 2000, based in Lochaber in the West Highlands. The five-piece draws members from Scotland, Ireland, California and Cape Breton Island, Canada, and performs traditional Highland and Gaelic music - jigs, reels and song - entirely in Scottish Gaelic. They won the 'Eiserner Eversteiner' European Folk Music Award at the German Folkherbst competition in 2014 and have been nominated multiple times for Folk Band of the Year at the Scots Trad Music Awards.
