The Black Tartan Clan is a Celtic rock band formed in 2008 by MacTouche and MacPië with the dream of creating a band that combines melodic punk rock with traditional Celtic sounds and instruments, such as the Highland bagpipes and the banjo.

Following in the footsteps of some of their favorite bands like Dropkick Murphys and Real McKenzies, the band released their first demo in 2008, taking a leap in popularity that led them to perform at the best festivals in Belgium and the rest of Europe.

With 5 CDs and 2 EPs released and over 300 shows in Belgium and the rest of Europe, Black Tartan Clan has established a solid reputation as a live band and has a growing fan base and worldwide. In May 2014, the band released their latest CD, 'Scotland in our Hearts', marking a new milestone in the band's evolution and introducing their unique sound to the world. Epic bagpipes and melodic banjo, served with a sauce of powerful electric guitars and a ragged voice that provides all the strength expected of a band that is postulated as a benchmark on the rock scene in Europe.

And in 2017, the band broke up due to MacTouche moving to Spain. However, he could not allow the band to fall into oblivion, so after doing some research, he manages to reunite 4 musicians with a long career in rock, and they are ready to take it up again and to become known.

The new line-up has these musicians:

MacTouche - voice (founding member)

MacKurr - Guitar

MacFrank - Bass

MacRivery - Drums

MacPië - Partner (founding member)
