"On behalf of everyone at the Redlands Community Music Association, we want to express a belated but sincere thank you for your memorable performance at the Redlands Bowl on July 5. You and the superb musicians in your band delighted the audience with your lively Celtic songs and good-natured humor. We are sure you could tell from the packed Bowl audience, (5000 - 6000), and the enthusiastic applause throughout the evening just how much your performance was appreciated.We were very proud to have you as a part of our season. Highland Way played an important role in our mission to present only the finest in the performing arts at the Redlands Bowl.
In addition, your children's workshop received high accolades! The chairwomen of the workshops reported that it was one of the most fun programs the children had ever participated in. Thank you for such a superb Bowl experience!"
Dear Brian & Band Members, As Chieftain of the San Diego Scottish Highland Games and Gathering of the Clans, I would like to put forward our heartfelt appreciation for your participation in our event. Your blend of traditional Scottish Music, both instrumental and vocal, both rousing and emotional was perfect for the event, as could be seen by the reaction of the audience. We especially liked the way you included the audience and encouraged participation. We look forward to having you return again as our headlining group in the near future. Thanks again.
I just wanted to take a second and let you know how much I enjoyed Highland Way, both working with the group and their performance. They were very well received, we filled the house for both shows and actually had to turn people away for both shows, something we have never had to do for the 7pm show before. So I just wanted to say thank you for the great booking and the graciousness of both you and the artists. It was enjoyable all the way around. Thanks! Rebecca
"Highland Way was great fun as always.
The addition of drums and whistles
makes it even better"
Highland Way is an exciting, great, "Celtic Experience" for all ages ! Each band member comes with a long history of musical training and performance that combines for a rousing and fun filled musical program. Their polished performance is a combination of "kick-up-your-heels" Scottish and Irish Reels and jigs plus melodic and romantic folk songs. This Band is definitely a "Crowd Pleaser."
Dear Brian, I don't know where to begin in thanking you and all of the members of Highland Way for the wonderful performance you gave at the Holly Theater during Dahlonega's Celtic Music Festival! It is so very evident that Highland Way truly enjoys entertaining people with your fabulous music. You and the entire band have a special way of interacting with the audience... .whether igniting clapping and laughter or bringing tears to their eyes! Honestly, Highland Way helped make Dahlonega's first Celtic Music Festival a success! We appreciate everything you contributed, from your fun family concert to the "Celtic Tales" workshop to your spectacular evening concert! Please know that we were not only entertained, but we feel we have new friends! I only wish that we had had more time to show you around and to get to know you even better. You will definitely have to come back!
The excellent Celtic Band Highland Way performed at our "A Scottish Evening" event on Friday night, October 13, 2006, much to the delight of the packed house of approximately 330 Games regulars and guests. Beginning very subtly as soothing dinner music, they very quickly cranked up the volume/class and had the crowd craning intently as they presented some excellent versions of Celtic classics and newer contributions. The band has amazing depth and talent in just the four musicians that make you think there must be more players hidden somewhere. They all contribute to a synergy far greater than any one performer-and yet they are each complete solo artists in their own right. We look forward to a repeat performance at this October's Scottish Evening event and to a full weekend of exciting Festival sets as only Highland Way can bring.
Highland Way has become San Diego’s best Celtic group. We in San Diego Folk Heritage rely on them for consistently high-quality entertainment. They’re a mainstay of our Musical Odyssey concert series. In addition to their great musicianship and skill in connecting with an audience, they’re easy and fun to work with. An evening with Highland Way leaves the staff, the technical crew, and the audience happy. Dick Jay Chairfolk
