Folk-Metallers CRUACHAN Drop a Video Paying Homage to Mighty Female Warriors

Cruachan has unveiled a captivating new music video for their song “The Witch,” featured on their recently released album, “The Living And The Dead.”

The band enlisted the creative talents of Olga Kuzmenko to bring the video to life. With mesmerizing visuals, the video perfectly complements the powerful energy of the song. Adding to the allure, the track also boasts a special guest performance by guitarist Stu “La Rage” Dixon from Venom. Prepare to be enthralled as Cruachan takes you on a thrilling musical journey through “The Witch.”

Founder Keith Fay commented:

“The Witch is for all Cruachan’s female fans. The song was written as an homage to all the warrior women out there, I felt a Pagan Forest Witch represents the ultimate in feminine power – independent and strong, you don’t mess with her. When I wrote the words, I intended that the music had to be something special. I wanted something that a lot of people, maybe even people not into metal, would listen to. One of the greatest Irish rock bands of all time is Thin Lizzy and I decided the music would be written in their style. It’s not a rip off, you won’t hear the riffs in The Witch in any Thin Lizzy song but you can definitely hear the Lizzy vibe throughout. We further added to the ‘cool’ by having Stu ‘La Rage’ Dixon from the legendary Venom perform a guest guitar solo on the song.”
