SHORT BIO

 

The Highland Sell-Outs is a 4 piece folk band from Groningen. They have been touring throughout the Netherlands since 2013 and can be found on pop stages, in pubs and on music festivals like Middeleeuws Winschoten en the Rapalje Zomerfolk Festival.

These practised musicians take you along in the atmosphere of the Scottish Highlands and Irish pubs with their contemporary rendition of traditional folk music with rock and pop influences. Singer and violinist Sebastiaan, Guitar player Steven, bass player Robin and drummer Tim are inspired by bands such as Rapalje, the High Kings and the Killkennys. The Highland Sell-Outs have introduced Irish folk songs and ballads to a young audience whilst stealing the hearts of the thorough folk-lovers.
