| Hom Bru began playing
together back in their native Shetland Islands in 1978.
Although the line up has changed several times over
the last 25 years, the current line up includes three
of the original members: Gary Peterson (Banjo, Mandolin),
Davie Henry (Mandolin, Vocals) and Brian Nicholson (Guitar,
Vocals). They are joined by fiddler John Robert Deyell.
In 1980 the band moved to Edinburgh and, basing themselves
there, toured all over Europe, including major festivals
in Holland, Denmark, Germany, Italy and France.
Hom Bru have now returned to Shetland, but continue
to travel at least a couple of trips a year outside
the isles.
