pigtown fling

what we do

Take the nourishing ingredients of Scottish folk music, mix in the exotic flavours of other European traditions and season with a dash of old-time mountain herbs. Mix them all together, stir vigorously and leave in the sun to cure. What do you get? Pigtown Fling, a trio serving up a musical dish designed to invigorate even the most demanding of palates. Using guitar, mandola, fiddle, mandolin, whistles, concertina, banjo, bagpipes (Border and Spanish), clarsach (Scottish harp) and voices, Pigtown Fling combine them all to produce a refreshing, cross-cultural sound.
Based in Argyll (Scotland), Pigtown Fling are now available to play for your event: e.g. pubs, hotels, clubs, festivals, private functions. Contact Robert now to book them and let Pigtown Fling add a touch of traditional tang to the occasion.
