"After picking up a batch of folk awards, this Scottish five-piece have been touring the world with impressive results. Astar is Scottish Gaelic for "journey", and this classy travelogue is remarkable for its variety of collaborations. The band is best known for featuring highland bagpipes along with fiddle, guitar, whistles and double bass, but this is Scottish-influenced global fusion".

"Astar is an album that truly reflects the journey that Breabach have been making over the last few years. They continue to show mastery of so many elements of their "home" music, from the pipe reels and marches that have long been their signature style to the Gaelic songs that Megan Henderson brought to the band. Now, they are confidently incorporating the "foreign" influences brought home from their travels and one can only guess where their musical journey will take them next".

"Astar, their fifth album, reflects and incoporates music and musicians encountered on their international travels. It's the first Breabach album, that seriously engages with musical traditions outside their own ... This is Breabach's most satisfying album yet".
