Oban Gaelic Choir are taking home the Lovat and Tullibardine Shield after beating off stiff competition at the Royal National Mòd.
This is the three successive year the choir have lifted the much coveted prize for the large area choral event.
The choir said: “There are no words to describe the feeling when you win the Lovat for the third time in a row.
“We are in awe of our conductor, Sileas Sinclair, for writing such an epic own choice.
“Thanks so much also to our incredible Gaelic reader, Christine MacIntyre, for a third year.”
Sileas Sinclair, conductor of Oban Gaelic Choir, said: “I feel speechless. We weren’t expecting the win tonight. We hoped and we worked very hard for it, and it felt good on the stage, but the standard of all the choirs today was just so high.
“We prepare for the Mòd for most of the year, so much time and effort goes into it, and I could not be more proud of the choir, they’ve worked so, so hard.”
