Kilt wearing, sea-faring, soul-baring band from Brazil! Celts accidentally born in Brazil, kilt users, piracy and navigation addicts and long lost Highland castles lovers. Makers of heavy medieval and Celtic influenced folk music filled with stories.

Born in Belo Horizonte in 2012, the band is formed by:

  • Mariana Roque (Vocals, Celtic Harp and Percussions)
  • Rafael Salobreña (Bodhran, Alfaia and Derbak)
  • Romulo Salobreña (Viola, Violin and Hurdy gurdy)
  • João Gabriel (Mandolin, Banjo, Uilleann Pipes and Flutes)
  • Gustavo Fofão (Acoustic Guitar)
