Description
'Speactram' is the powerful and innovative debut album from Edinburgh based writer, singer/songwriter Marcas Mac an Tuairneir.
Marcus, an acclaimed writer and Gaelic language exponent won the award for the best new Gaelic song at the Royal National Mòd in 2018 and the Virtual Mòd in 2020.
"The album aims to bring back the Gaelic popular music tradition of the 1980s, that saw its advent with the likes of the 101 Band and Na Soluis Dhuibh. Both outfits mapped the Gaelic language onto musical sounds being heard on mainstream radio at the time. Marcas has successfully managed to reintroduce this concept in Speactram by encapsulating the mood of upbeat contemporary sounds into Gaelic songs and introducing the genre of GaelPop - a pioneering new genre which sees Gaelic going pop."
