Unusual for Breton groups, the band's approach is intended for listening and not specifically for the traditional Fest Noz dance circuit, and contains the Scots ballads of bouzouki and mandolin player Jamie McMenemy [fr].

Pennoù Skoulm remains active as a performing group, occasionally joined by Irish musician Andy Irvine.

Scotsman Jamie McMenemy (vocals, bouzouki, mandolin, cittern) had previously toured and recorded with the Battlefield Band.

While touring Brittany he encountered a traditional fest noz dance music performance and was immediately enthralled.

Two years later, he recorded a solo album The Road to Kerrigouarch, joined by guitarist Soïg Siberil [fr] and violinist Christian Lemaitre.

He has also toured and recorded several times with fiddlers Kevin Burke and Johnny Cunningham as Celtic Fiddle Festival, mostly reworking material from Kornog and Storvan.
