Beware the Vatersay Boys/Balaich Bhatarsaigh
The Vatersay Boys give viewers exclusive access to their lives over a six-month period as they tour Scotland from their local ceilidh hall to their sold out Glasgow Barrowland gig.
Bheir am pr貌gram 'Bi faiceallach air na Vatersay Boys' cothrom do dhaoine fhaicinn ciamar da-r矛ribh a tha saoghal fear dhen na c貌mhlain-ci霉il ceilidh as ainmeil an Alba. Ch矛 sinn Micheal, Donnie, Andy agus Joe, a deanamh an cuid obrach 脿bhaisteach mar phosta, fear-bhinichean agus iasgair. An toiseach, ch矛 sinn ceilidh aighearach feasgar ann an taigh-sh猫innse ann am B脿gh a Chaisteil, an uairsin cuirm m貌r air an 脿rd-urlar aig Barrafest. Chan ann tric a tha cuisean samhach air an rathad comhla-ri na Vatersay Boys, le sp貌rs agus fealla-dh脿 air agus far an 脿rd-urlar c貌mhla-riutha. Agus a dh' aoindeoin ceithir manaidsearan, chan eil e furasda dhaibh a bhith cumail ri cl脿r-ama. Bidh br脿thair Donnie, Mick MacNeill a b' 脿bhaist a bhith sa ch貌mhlan Simple Minds, cuideachd a toirt taic dhan na balaich 'se ag obair na einnseiniar-ceol. Ch矛 sinn na balaich a' cl脿radh 貌ran neo dh脿 san
studio c貌mhla ri-san ann am Bh脿tarsaigh, ann an seada air a bheir cumadh ri seada-phleanaichean. Aig toiseach an D霉bhlachd ni an c貌mhlan air Glaschu, airson a chuirm mh貌r bhliadhnail aca ann am Barrowland's Ghlascha.
The boys give exclusive access to their lives as they go about their day jobs as postman, bin man and fisherman before they head out on tour around Scotland. Life on the road with the Vatersay Boys is never dull as the onstage party continues off stage, and despite having up to four managers, things don't always run to schedule! We also see the band maintain their roots with a local ceilidh in the Vatersay village hall. Not just a live act, the band have an on-board resident engineer and recording studio on Vatersay, courtesy of Donnie's brother, former Simple Minds keyboard player, Mick MacNeill. In early December the band pack up and head to Glasgow for the annual festive ceilidh.
