Named for poet Robert Tannahill, the “Weaver Poet of Paisley,” the Tannahill Weavers are recognized worldwide as trailblazers in the Scottish folk music revival. Blending the energy of contemporary Celtic music with deep roots in traditional Scottish songs and instrumentals, the band has spent more than five decades performing across the globe.

Formed in 1968, the Tannahill Weavers have released numerous acclaimed albums, earned induction into the Scottish Traditional Music Hall of Fame, and inspired countless musicians in the folk world. Their performances are marked by fiery instrumentals, beautiful ballads, and irresistible humor that connects with audiences of all backgrounds.
With their unmatched combination of tradition, innovation, and sheer musicality, the Tannahill Weavers create an unforgettable experience that both honors Scotland’s past and celebrates its living culture.
