The Ship Hector

The ship Hector, which sailed from Scotland to Pictou, N.S. during the summer of 1773 began the mainstream of Scottish immigration to present-day Canada. Much publicity has heralded the launching at Pictou, of a Hector full size replica, an event that financial assistance from Clan Maclean Atlantic helped to make possible. Aboard the Hector were Macleans and non-Maclean ancestors of Macleans living today including Kenneth Smith MacLean of Truro, N.S and Donald Forest MacLean of Halifax, N.S.

We are a five member Celtic rock band from and around the mountains of Western North Carolina. The origins of this band was started with a desire to escape the various forms of music we were all involved in. We all had an overwhelming need to be part of a band that was truly different and special. Influenced by such ground-breaking bands like Seven Nations and Enter the Haggis, we set out to play Celtic music that also included our personal tastes. In our music, you're likely hear influences that range from Toto to Bowling For Soup and all points in between. Mix in the haunting sounds of traditional Celtic instruments like, the Highland bagpipes, whistles, flute, mandolin and other instruments of the like, and what you get is

Uncle Hamish and The Hooligans.
