With an ever-expanding network of international friendships and musical ties, Breabach's global community continues to thrive

Their latest release, Gathering Ground, serves as a direct celebration of this growing musical family. This album refects on the band's enduring bonds of family and friendship, the solace in music as a place to gather and the adventures they've experienced over the last few years. In 2025 the band were guests/performers at the inaugural Grand Ole Opry: Live in London show, where they explored the celtic roots of American music and formed new musical alliances. These experiences, as well as an increase in transatlantic touring, directly infuenced the creation of this latest album. Special guests include country superstar Darius Rucker, contemporary Gaelic icons Alasdair Whyte & Ewen Henderson and members of the Grand Ole Opry house band.

Recorded in Glasgow, Scotland in the Summer of 2026, produced by Innes White (Kim Carnie, Sian, Siobhan Miller ) and engineered by Iain Hutchison, the album seeks to capture the live energy which has become Breabach's trademark across the globe whilst at the same time present a more intimate and personal side to the band. To celebrate its release, Breabach will be on tour around the UK throughout October, before returning to the US in January 2027.
