Sassenachs are a seven-piece headstrong Folk Rock formation from Dordrecht (The Netherlands).

4 members are definitely coming (the piper and 3 war drummers.....) we will get later confirmation if 2 more will be coming.

​

Dressed in 18th century plaids and armed with a bagpipe and war drums their tunes take you to the beautiful, beguiling, romantic but yet rough Scottish landscape where the music they play is all but traditional

You will be swept up by the haunting sounds of the bagpipe and the rousing rhythms of the drums, which makes it impossible to stay seated or stand still.

 

The Sassenachs are able to turn every situation into a party.

​

Come and check it out yourselves how they will rock your socks off.
