Background:

The Clachan Boys play Irish and Scottish folk songs, often using traditional and obscure instruments not often seen in contemporary bands. Founder Brian Caldwell (guitar, vocals, guitar, bodhran) grew up in Scotland, while co-founder Paul Castellanos (mandolin, banjo, fiddle, guitar, vocals) has played with the Young Dubliners and the Chieftans.

Brian Caldwell also plays in the band Highland Way.
