About Us

The Celtic Chords shop and website was launched in February 2003 by Pete Murray who identified a niche market for a traditional music shop on Scotland’s picturesque N.E coast in the lovely seaside town of Stonehaven.

With our passion for traditional music and dedication as musicians, we aspire to promote Celtic and traditional folk music with the aim of creating a focal point for all your traditional music needs.

As part of our commitment to our customers, we also offer a repair and set-up service for fiddles, guitars, and other stringed instruments, accordions, woodwind and brass instruments.

If you are considering learning to play an instrument, come and chat to us as we have an extensive list of local music tutors who provide both group sessions and private one on one tuition.

We also support SCAT (Scottish Culture and Traditions), which is a charitable organisation based in Aberdeen that run adult traditional music and dance workshops, with the aim of promoting awareness and growth of Scottish traditional culture. Check out their website for the latest info: www.scottishculture.org

Ask in our shop for information on the Aberdeenshire traditional music scene with live pub sessions and the ever growing annual Stonehaven International Folk Festival held in July.
