Bar Room Mountaineers.
The unique Scottish act, Findlay Napier and The Bar Room Mountaineers hail from a “folk” background which makes it easy to pigeonhole most bands, but certainly not this one.
The band draws on a wide range of musical influences including bluegrass, country, funk and folk, with the occasional bit of punk thrown in for good measure. If you were to think, Loudon Wainwright’s unparalleled story telling, meets the tightness of Nickel Creek, with a distinctive Scottish twist, you would be getting warm!
This is a must see live band, filled with energy and vibrancy and as one prominent Scottish journalist recently commented after seeing the band:
“They are giving birth to a new genre: Scottish Americana”

Scottish Album of the Year
A review by Shay Clark for the Irish American Times on the 4th March 2009
Scottish Album of the Year
Out All Night – Findlay Napier and the Bar Room Mountaineers
The Celtic Classic Festival in Bethlehem, PA, was almost rained out last year, and God help me, but I don’t remember who put this album in my hand and asked me to listen to it. But to whomever it was, I am eternally grateful.
Apart from a couple of fine traditional arrangements, it is the songwriting and voice of Findlay Napier that makes this album special. Some may call it contemporary, but it is a beautiful amalgam of Scottish soul, funk and folk. Findlay’s voice is as warm and comfortable as a well-worn leather jacket.
Out All Night is an awesome album.
