It�s hard to credit that Edinburgh sextet Shooglenifty have been at the forefront of contemporary Celtic dance music for a full quarter entury � but that�s how long it is since their official debut gig, at the 1990 Orkney Folk Festival.
Still unrivalled in their skill at welding beautiful melodies to wickedly potent grooves � together with kaleidoscopic influences from psychedelic rock to Balkan beats � they�ve recently added Kaela Rowan�s radiant Gaelic vocals to their line-up, and have a brandnew album, The Untied Knot, out in December. Tonight�s silver-jubilee festivities reunite them with the Dhol Drummers of Rajasthan, after a stunning joint performance during 2014�s Commonwealth Games.
