songs. Essentially Scottish, with an emphasis on rhythm and harmony, Gaberlunzie
has a wide appeal to audiences both at home and abroad. They have travelled
extensively in Europe, Canada, United States, and the Middle East, taking with
them not only Scottish music but also that other extra special ingredient -
Scottish humour.
The Gabs, as they are popularly called among their loyal following of supporters, have a wealth of experience in performing for a wide variety of audiences - from folk clubs to football stadiums, from holiday resorts to concert halls. They have appeared many times on television and radio not only in the UK but also in Canada, and the United States.
To date, Gaberlunzie have recorded 25 albums
and three videos.In addition, they have been engaged
in solo projects creating albums in different musical styles. Robin's are entitled
Summer Storms and Colours.
Gordon's solo album is Full Circle. Their latest
CD release is called "Of A' The Airts" and
is available now.
The performance of the duo spans the breadth of Scottish culture. As singers, instrumentalists, and songwriters, their talents are impressive and Gaberlunzie's gift for entertainment is unsurpassed in Scottish folk music.
