Red-hot piping indeed from the piping 'boy band', winners of BBC TV's When Will I Be Famous? With three top-rate bagpipers and two percussionists the sparks really fly.

Bagpipes with attitude. Drums with a Scottish accent. And a show so hot it carries its own health warning. The Red Hot Chilli Pipers have been rocking the world from Athens to Beijing with musicianship of the highest order and a passion for pipes that will leave you breathless.

For this album they are joined by various backing musicians, adding to the variety on the most popular piping album of the year.

The Red Hot Chilli Pipers are Stuart Cassells (pipes), Willie Armstrong (pipes), Kevin MacDonald (pipes), Malcolm McEwan (marching drums, Handsonic), Steven Graham (side drums), Steven Black (kit drums), Gregor James (guitars, bass) and Chris Russell (piano, keyboards).
