Mellowosity and Faerie Stories, the Peatbogs first two albums, remain two of Greentrax Recordings best ever selling albums.

The Peatbogs released their third album Welcome to Dun Vegas on July 28th 2003 on Peatbog Records. It has sold well and has enjoyed some great reviews including 5 stars from the Glasgow Herald.

Recent highlights have been tours in Australia and America as well as prominent festivals and gigs around the UK and Europe. 2005 saw the band promoting their new album, ?Croftwork? with some extensive touring, including festivals such as Glastonbury, Cambridge Folk Festival and Beautiful Days. In November, the band won the award for ?Best Live Act of 2005? at the prestigious Scots TradMusic Awards.

Released on 25th April 2005 on the bands own Peatbog Records label, the Peatbogs fourth album Croftwork is their most ambitious and dynamic offering to date. After the success of ?Welcome to Dun Vegas?, the new album was always going to by a challenge. But with some inventive new material, a couple of special guests and a top class brass section, the band feel they have created an album they can be proud of.
