One of the greatest Celtic rock bands today! Kirk McLeod returns to Dunedin with his fantastic band Seven Nations. The story of SEVEN NATIONS is that of a truly original band who has earned a growing reputation as an adventurous band with a charismatic stage presence. “Seven Nations — the name refers to the seven original Celtic nations of Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, Galecia, Isle of Man, and Brittany — officially began in 1993 in New York City with a standard line-up of drums, guitars, and bass,” notes lead singer and guitarist Kirk McLeod. “We soon introduced bagpipes into the show, and over time the number of songs utilizing bagpipes grew until it became obvious that they were integral to our emerging sound,” says McLeod. “Most of the band members grew up playing Celtic music, and we’ve been performing original compositions since we began. Our instrumentation, and bagpipes and fiddle mostly, give us a distinctive sound and that’s what makes us different.”
Seven Nations has been touring full-time since 1994 with successful stops in Europe, Canada, Puerto Rico, and every state in the US including Alaska and Hawaii. The band has recorded a number of albums with over a half million units in sales. The group has performed at a variety of venues, from nightclubs and theaters to festivals and street fairs. They’ve done it all.
Seven Nations has been the subject of a multi-million dollar advertising campaign and appeared in over 20 major publications including Rolling Stone, Billboard, Playboy, Maxim, GQ, Stuff, and FHM.
2024 marked the 30th anniversary of the band's first album release, Rain and Thunder. Don't miss this electric show, you won't forget it and will be looking forward to their next visit back!
