The story
*Ruairidh Maclean* *A.K.A* **RuMac** is a Scottish accordion player who started off playing traditional Scottish music and slowly drifted into a strange mix of genres. From traditional Gaelic Songs to Heavy metal rock there’s no telling what racket will come out of his mouth and box, but slowly the world is becoming aware of his anarchic unique performances and they can’t get enough of it. A weird but fun performer that is always best experienced live…
From ranting about Gaelic choirs to grim versions of worldwide hits, RuMac’s debut album 'The Bloody Box' is a punishing cacophony for yer ears that’ll keep you on yer toes and reaching for the skip button. But if ya stick around and don't take shit too seriously, you might be part of the niche group of freaks like himself ready to tear shit up.
And that niche group of freaks is rapidly growing. With the debut album clocking over 1,500,000 plays online, just two videos on YouTube with over 2,000,000 plays, and an already bulging diary for 2026, it would seem that RuMac is the kind of freak that is going to get freakier and freakier.
