Biography
With the fusion of two styles set apart...we bring u the most original sound out of SA....CELTIC METAL!!!

Haggis and Bong is a band formed by Angus "Haggis" Nixon and Thomas "Bong" Hughes. The band is close on celebrating its one year anniversary...which will result in a party of massive proportions!!

The band has pioneered the Celtic Metal genre in South Africa with great response....jamming at such illustrious festivals as Motherfudd (improv as it were) and SA Metal Rights Festival and Seasons Wither 2 still to come...

With the inclusion of a second piper, Dominic Skelton, the depth in the music and the variety offered is increased a hundred fold!!

8 tracks now down, and 2 more in the pipe lines (excuse the pun), the band is moving from strength to EXTRA STRONG!!! lol Regular gigs around Gauteng will allow you to get ur acquired taste buds flaring!

The recording of the EP has seen a few speed bumps, as it were, but things are still in motion and you can expect it shortly.

From a piping side and melody side, the main aim is to reposition the bagpipes as an instrument of METAL... but also to improve the awareness and support for the bagpipes.

Celtic Metal is now alive and kicking in our country...thanks to the support of all our legendary loyal Celtic Crazy Compatriates.

So whether u feel the double bass pedal and 200bpms or the celtic vibers flowing off the chanter...Haggis and Bong are the band for u!
A people's band, YOUR BAND!

We look forward to seeing u Stripping the Willow at our next performance...let brutality reign!

Haggis and Bong, ITS A HELLUVA THING!
