Featured Performers & Artists

The Skagit Valley Highland Games welcomes Molly's Revenge Celtic folk band as our headline performers for the 2010 festival. The band blends a wide range of instruments and vocals, with a high energy and driving style that is their trademark.  One critic observed that:

"The instruments are traditional... but the wild passion they exhibit is thoroughly modern."

 Live, traditional music is a huge part of our event, and we work hard at selecting performers who we know will connect with our audiences.  The range of music performed offers something for young and old - get ready for some foot-stomp'n!

Molly's Revenge will be performing on Saturday at the main stage from approximately 12:30 pm until 2:00, and then as our headline performer for Saturday evening starting at 5:30 pm.  For more details on the schedule for the Skagit Valley Highland Games, please see the 2010 Schedule of Events page.
