A dynamic four fiddle front line joined with a powerhouse of piano, bass, guitar and Scottish harp to create a "display of stunning virtuosity". Fiddlers' Bid are internationally respected as leading exponents of their rich fiddle tradition and are global ambassadors for Shetland. Since forming in 1991, they have established an identity as a unique band with a harmonious and almost symphonic sound developed through many years of playing together.
