An Comunn Gàidhealach are very sad to hear of the death of Fergie MacDonald, ‘The Cèilidh King’ as he was known to many. He played at many Mòds and was an ambassador to the Gaelic language and Highland musical culture. He uplifted and brought happiness to all in the audience when he played his accordion, which was seldom not in his hands.
Our thoughts and sympathies are with Fergie’s friends and family at this difficult time.
