When a fisherman, an airport electrician and delivery driver from the Outer Hebrides sell out the Sub Rooms 🎶

Absolutely brilliant gig. Maybe even top 5. 😮

Watching the brilliant Peat & Diesel on BBC iPlayer. That's the way they do it in the Western Isles 😄

Must be about time for a new album?

Michelle Shields is one of the stalwart figures in the development of HebCelt; the festival which attracts an increasing number of visitors to the Western Isles every summer. She used to work in the ticket office, but now Michelle is the artist programmer for the 2024 event which takes place in Stornoway next July! #HebCelt #WesternIsles #DelAmitri #PeatandDiesel #Stornoway https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/lifestyle/6270357/michelle-shields-hebcelt-festival/

Anybody on here at the Peat and Diesel gigs at Banchory and Inverurie this weekend?
#PeatAndDiesel

Years ago I was on a social media called Vox. 🐘 has a similar vibe. People-to-people connection about things they’re interested in, not things they’re encouraged to believe they want to buy.

By way of #introduction, I love….

Peat and Diesel were only formed last year on the Isle of Lewis. The band are: lead singer Callum "Boydie" MacLeod is a fisherman, Innes Scott, on accordion, is an electrician, and Uilleam "Uilly" MacLeod, the drummer, is a delivery driver. Mairead Fay Nicholson is guesting on vocals.

Here's hoping they can make #1, it would be a dream come true.

Tha mise dol dhachaigh gu Eilean mo ghràidh 😃

For those doubting that "Fairytale of Stornoway" is at #4, here is a screenshot of the iTunes chart.

Fairytale of Stornoway
by Peat & Diesel with Mairead

Currently at #4 in the charts. Buy the download on Spotify or Apple, and help Mairead & the lads beat off the challenge from Taylor Swift or Stormzy (not kidding).

All the insults are in Gaelic, so hardly anyone will understand.
