Bodega (Scottish band)

Its members met while they were studying together at the National Centre of Excellence in Traditional Music in Plockton, Scotland, from which they all graduated.

They disbanded at the end of 2011, citing the changing musical trajectories of the band's principal founding members.

The group performed traditional Scottish and Irish music, as well as newly composed material by its members, combining improvisation and eclectic influences from jazz, rock, funk, and other non-traditional genres.

The lead singer, Norrie MacIver, sings in both Scottish Gaelic (including waulking songs and puirt à beul) and English.

In late 2005 the group won the 2006 BBC Radio 2 Young Folk Award.
