Heritage were first formed in 1976 in Fife, Scotland, and have played and recorded Scots music ever since. Three members of the original 1976-79 band are still with them: Jack Beck, Lindsay Porteous and George Haig. The present line-up also includes Mike Ward (whistle/smallpipes/keyboard), Pete Clark (fiddle), Alistair Marshall (whistle, pipes) and Alan McDonald (mandola).
