The headline act has been announced for one of the longest-running music events in Moray.
Concerts, ceilidhs, dances and competitions have helped Keith burst into life every summer since 1976.
And now, Breabach has been confirmed as the star attraction for this year’s festival.
The Scottish five-piece group will head the bill for a toe-tapping concert in the town’s Royal Hotel on Saturday, June 10.
The band has developed a reputation for thrilling performances – claiming the prizes for best folk group and top album at last year’s Scottish Traditional Music Awards.
Also booked for the night are local ceilidh band Ill’Trickit and Huntly singer Iona Fyfe.
Festival chairwoman Kathleen Anderson said: “Breabach are a wonderful band and we are over the moon that we are able to announce them as our headline act.
“Their reputation and array of awards speak for themselves. They have been all over the world performing and are internationally renowned.
“It will be a great pleasure to welcome them to Keith and I am confident they will draw a crowd from far and near.”
A full line-up of acts ranging from traditional bothy ballad singers to young ceilidh bands is being prepared.
Keith Festival runs from Friday, June 9 to Sunday, June 11 at venues across the town. Tickets for Breabach cost £15.
Tickets will soon be available from Mither Tongue on Mid Street and by phoning Sandy McCombie on 01542 882638.
