Runrig is a Scottish Rock/Folk group that I began to listen to
after I spent 5 months living in Scotland during a semester abroad at the
University of Stirling. Their music is a delightful blend of folk, rock,
and traditional Gaelic music, with about 30% of their songs' lyrics in
Gaelic. Unfortunately, it is quite difficult to find their music in the
United States, though some shops that specialize in Celtic music do carry
them as imports. I've heard Tayberry Music carries them in the U.S. Their
music is distributed by Portland America Distributing in the U.S., and
their webpage has information about ordering their music. I've also
recently discovered that the HMV chain of music stores carries them in the
Celtic section of the World Music area.
