Recorded after our set at Banchory Beer Festival
Ye Jacobites by Name
Ye Jacobites by Name is a traditional Scottish folk song which goes back to the Jacobite Risings in Scotland (1688–1746). While the original version simply attacked the Jacobites from a contemporaneous Whig point of view, Robert Burns rewrote it in around 1791 to give a version with a more general, humanist anti-war outlook. This is the version that most people know today (i) and the version we recorded in this wee video. Hope you enjoy!
