FAQ's

What, Where, When, Who, How much...

To request Runrig for a private party, corporate event, wedding, festival or public concert, send BnMusic the proposed event date, city and country, event type, venue and preferred performance format.

BnMusic will review the request and coordinate the availability and commercial terms for the proposed engagement.

A booking should only be considered confirmed after the event has been accepted and the required contractual conditions have been completed.

Runrig‘s official website currently lists BnMusic and shows@bnmusic-artists.com as booking contacts.

Runrig does not have one fixed public fee that applies to every event.

The final quote can depend on the event date, destination, type of event, performance format, travel routing and production requirements.

For Runrig, travel arrangements can have a direct effect on the total event budget because the currently published rider includes flights, ground transportation, accommodation and hospitality requirements for the travelling party.

Send the event details to shows@bnmusic-artists.com to request current commercial terms for the actual date and location.

Runrig availability should be checked for the exact event date and destination.

A date that appears free on a public concert calendar should not automatically be treated as available because private events, travel days or provisional bookings may not be publicly visible.

Provide the date, city, country and event type to BnMusic so the proposed engagement can be checked.

Availability is not the same as a confirmed booking; commercial terms and contractual conditions still need to be agreed.

For an accurate Runrig booking request, provide:

  • event date;
  • city and country;
  • event type;
  • venue or proposed venue;
  • approximate audience size;
  • indoor or outdoor event;
  • proposed show time;
  • requested performance duration;
  • available production;
  • approved budget range, if available.

Production information is particularly useful for Runrig because the current published rider specifies professional sound equipment, stage monitoring and wireless microphone requirements and ect.

Runrig is available for select private, corporate events, parties and festivals.

Runrig‘s current official booking presentation features original member of Runrig and describes performances using the original studio playbacks.

The type of performance (playback show or live band show) and the lineup and number of performers may vary depending on the client’s preferences and requirements.

The exact stage configuration should still be confirmed for the requested date because the available performance format may vary between engagements.

BnMusic first reviews the event information and checks the proposed engagement.

If Runrig is available and the event is acceptable, the next stages normally include:

  1. commercial proposal;
  2. agreement on performance terms;
  3. contract;
  4. payments according to the agreed schedule;
  5. technical rider review;
  6. flights and accommodation;
  7. ground transportation;
  8. final production and event coordination.

The exact sequence can vary according to the event.

The standard duration of a performance at a private event is 45–60 minutes.

However, the length of the show can be adjusted to suit the client’s or organizer’s preferences.

An Runrig can perform anything from a single song to a full 60-minute set.

Every artist has a technical rider listing the equipment required for their performance.

The technical rider is provided upon request, taking the client’s preferences into account.

Before sending the rider, we need to know the key parameters and dimensions of the stage, as well as the venue specifications.

We also need details regarding the type and duration of the performance, and the specific tracks you would like the Runrig to perform.

Based on all this information, a custom technical rider is prepared for your event.

About Runrig

Biography / Discography

Runrig were a Scottish Celtic rock band formed on the Isle of Skye in 1973 by brothers Rory MacDonald (bass, vocals) and Calum MacDonald (percussion). Throughout their 45-year career, the band became one of Scotland’s most celebrated acts, blending folk and rock with Gaelic language lyrics centered on Scottish history, culture, and politics. The classic lineup of the 1980s and 1990s also featured lead vocalist Donnie Munro, guitarist Malcolm Jones, drummer Iain Bayne, and keyboardist Pete Wishart.

Runrig achieved their greatest commercial success during the 1980s and 1990s, with Billboard describing them as one of the “most celebrated” Gaelic language bands in Scotland. Their 1995 single “An Ubhal as Àirde (The Highest Apple)” made history as the first song sung in Scottish Gaelic to chart on the UK Singles Chart. The band’s signature song “Loch Lomond” became iconic, and their 2007 re-release “Loch Lomond (Hampden Remix)” reached number nine in the UK charts and earned Silver certification from the BPI. Runrig released fourteen studio albums between 1978 and 2016, including Play Gaelic (1978), The Highland Connection (1979), Heartland (1985), and The Story (2016).

Following Donnie Munro’s departure in 1997 to pursue politics, Bruce Guthro became lead vocalist from 1998 onwards, helping the band reach new audiences in Canada and the United States. The band staged major outdoor summer concerts at Scottish landmarks including Loch Lomond (1991, attracting 50,000 attendees), Stirling Castle, Edinburgh Castle, and Scone Palace. After announcing their retirement in 2017, Runrig performed their final farewell tour The Last Dance in August 2018 at Stirling City Park, attracting an estimated 52,000 fans across two days.
