Puirt-a-beul, which translates from Scottish Gaelic to "tunes from a mouth," is a vocal music genre deeply embedded in the Scottish and Gaelic musical traditions. Characterized by its lively, rhythmic melodies, puirt-a-beul is traditionally performed a cappella or accompanied by minimal instrumentation. The genre focuses on the art of mouth music, where vocalists mimic the sounds and patterns of instruments, notably bagpipes and fiddles, using vocables – nonsensical syllables and lyrics. This style arose from the need to uphold the conviviality of dance music in settings where instruments were unavailable or prohibited. Artists like Julie Fowlis and bands like Mànran have played pivotal roles in revitalizing and introducing puirt-a-beul to contemporary audiences, skillfully blending the traditional elements with modern influences, thus preserving the genre’s vitality and relevance in today's folk music scene.
