Scotland’s Hoolie in New York

Held during NYC Tartan Week, the largest annual celebration of Scottish heritage in NYC, Scotland’s Hoolie in New York is hosted by award-winning actor Alan Cumming and brings together some of Scotland’s top tier artists including the multi award-winning, electrifying band Mànran, Julie Fowlis (who gained international recognition for her contributions to the soundtrack of Disney-Pixar’s animated film Brave, particularly for performing the song Touch the Sky) and band, Dougie MacLean (composer of the iconic song Caledonia and The Last of the Mohicans soundtrack), the Oban High School Pipe Band (one of the top youth pipe bands in Scotland), and performers from the iconic The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. The concert also features a rare performance of the Gregg fiddle – an 18th century fiddle connected to the poet Robert Burns that has been named one of the “25 Objects That Shaped Scotland’s History.”
