(UMe) The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards have embarked on a 61 date US tour in support of Spirit of the Glen, available in stores and online 02/12/2008.The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards is Scotland's senior regiment and her only regular cavalry. The band members, as well as being trained musicians, are all Army soldiers who crew tanks.
The album, both Scots and classical tunes, is a tribute to the dedication and talent of this group of military pipers. While they are first and foremost soldiers, the music on Spirit of the Glen is a heart-warming and beautiful demonstration of the incredibly powerful and emotive sound of bagpipe music.
Some album highlights from the album: the McCartney popularized #1 single: 'Mull of Kintyre,' 'Amazing Grace 2007': a #1 hit more than 35 years ago, a reworking of Rod Stewarts 'Sailing,' plus film themes Dances with Wolves & The Last of the Mohicans.
Blending the commitment as a soldier and beauty of a musician, the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards have served in wars from the 18th century to modern day Iraq. With one arm holding a rifle and in the other a bagpipe, this brave and talented group grace our land with a symphony of heritage and honor: not to be missed. learn more
