Sian are a Scottish Gaelic folk band whose acclaimed sophomore album araon won Album of the Year at the 2025 Scots Trad Music Awards. Formed in 2016 through Blas Festival, the band is made up of Ceitlin Lilidh, Eilidh Cormack and Ellen MacDonald, alongside multi-instrumentalist Innes White. With roots in Lewis, Skye and North Uist, Sian’s music is grounded in Gaelic song, shaped by close, carefully balanced vocal harmonies.
Their sound has been compared to The Staves and even Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and they have featured on several tracks with electronic band Niteworks.
Following their acclaimed 2020 debut, araon was released in August 2025, produced by Innes White and Innes Strachan. A clear progression from their debut, araon marks a bold step forward – with Songlines calling it “a masterclass in vocal layering and restraint, a collection that celebrates Scottish song traditions while nudging them forward into fresh, contemporary light,” while At The Barrier described it as “a masterpiece in any genre.”
