PIPE BAND The Barbarian band has been active for five years, and originates from the lands in the shade of the western Alps, a place called Bugella Civitas, (the present Biella- Piedmont). For a few years now the band has been terrorising surrounding popular folk, whom for a very long time, have been dedicated to agriculture and sheep rearing. This group of hunter-gatherers, let alone musicians, is formed of three bagpipes and three drums able to summon the thunder in Earth, namely Taranis, their patron and great God of the storms. As powerful as the voice of Taranis is, so is their music. Their repertoire branches out from traditional Scottish, German, Occitanian and Piedmont pieces to songs of their own creation. They conduct a semi nomadic lifestyle, seasoningly abandoning their land to roam the entire Italic territory, and occasionally crossing the imposing Alpine walls so to satisfy their inexhaustible thirst for adventure. The band plays in medieval costume from the 1300s-1400s, and is an ideal choice for medieval events, banquets, weddings, stag and hen nights, funerals, crowd inciting, and any other manifestations. They have taken part in countless medieval, Celtic and such like events.
