A strong step forward in Bruach’s early journey

Bruach returned to The Twa Tams for a second appearance —
this time as the supporting act for Brock’s Den,
a talented solo singer-guitarist accompanied by his charming toy poodle,
who quickly became the unofficial star of the backstage area.

This performance marked an important milestone in the band’s development.
It was one of the earliest gigs after the addition of our fiddler,
who had previously struggled to hear her own instrument on stage during an earlier show at the same venue.
Since then, the band had invested time, equipment, and rehearsal effort to refine the on-stage sound,
ensuring that everyone could perform comfortably and confidently.

Originally, the plan had been for the fiddle to join only for the second half of the set.
However, minutes before the show began, the decision was made to perform the full programme together.
The result was a lively, high-energy night featuring around twenty songs,
all delivered with enthusiasm and a growing sense of cohesion.

Brock’s Den brought a warm, relaxed atmosphere with his seasoned playing style,
and the collaboration between the two acts made for a memorable evening.
It was a small but meaningful chapter in Bruach’s early history —
a moment when the band’s evolving sound and chemistry began to take clearer shape.
