About Peat and Diesel
Hailing from the rugged, windswept Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, Peat and Diesel have rapidly ascended from local heroes to a national sensation. Comprising Boydie (vocals and guitar), Innes Scott (accordion), and Uilly Macleod (drums), the band formed in 2018, quickly gaining traction through their humorous, relatable lyrics and electrifying live performances. Their music is a vibrant fusion of traditional Celtic folk, punk rock energy, and a distinctive lyrical style that often narrates tales of island life, fishing, and everyday island humour.
Their breakthrough came with viral videos of their raw and energetic kitchen sessions, leading to their debut album, “Uptown Fank,” in 2019. Hits like “That’s The Way We Do It,” “Calum Dan’s Transit Van,” and “Horo Gheallaidh” have become anthems, renowned for their catchy melodies and singalong choruses. Peat and Diesel’s appeal lies in their authenticity; they are three friends playing music they love, infused with the spirit of the Western Isles. Their current lineup remains the original trio, ensuring that the chemistry and camaraderie that define their sound are always at the forefront. Their music isn’t just heard; it’s felt, a true celebration of Scottish culture delivered with unbridled passion and a cheeky grin.
