The Gael (The Last Of The Mohicans Theme) Cover by The Shanties (Promontory)

Why does this song have so many names? Anyway, here's The Shanties playing the theme song from The Last Of The Mohicans, known as "The Gael", and occasionally as "Promontory" (and sometimes "Promentory"). The audio is taken straight from the board at Smith's Tavern on 3/17/18, St. Patrick's Day, with a bit of post mixing done for a full sound. The band features many instruments, including a fiddle, accordion, mandolin, and banjo, along with the typical guitar bass and drums.
The Pigeon Pack strives to promote DIY music and life so that anyone can have adventures of their own.
We formed in 2016 with one vision: spread our music by touring across the US--in a hot bus for 6 weeks--and try to not kill each other! We filmed our experiences and compiled them into a web series. During that time, we learned a lot about what is required of a DIY band, and found this information was hard to come by online, scattered across different websites and forums. We aim to change this by being a single place for all information on DIY music.
We are all about variety. Each band is a different genre, and we hope to add a variety of videos to our channel that serve the DIY community in funny and informative ways.

Pretty good, accordion makes this.

I always cry to this piece of music in Mohicans. Seeing the girl fall away...

[@SouPNaZi316]

alice, what a dreadful decision one could make. faced with burning in a fire just after watching the person you love killed.... still one of the best sequences in film

[@stephenruff157]

And we still come back to watch and listen to the beautiful piece of music.

In that movie, I was so upset when she jumped. I understood why, but maybe we could still survive. That was so sad.

A fate worse than death, a heroine

[@anne-no2ic]

in life people do things like this in dire situations split second reactions.

[@richardportman8912]

​@anne-no2ic yes I know but I it still breaks my heart that was her only choice. Oh well.

[@Watchdog2023]

And Uncas getting killed-he should’ve waited on the other two instead of going against Magua and company alone 😢

Lets spare a thought for the drummer; nice work.

[@rosemarypastore4283]

Loved the whole soundtrack from this movie; saw it at the theater when it first came out and I’ve watched it many times since.

[@SouPNaZi316]

i try and rewatch it once a year. probably my favorite movie. the visuals with this amazing soundtrack..... last of the mohicans is a pretty perfect film

[@carlobinda1127]

I'm late to the party, but great job by The Shanties!!! 😃👍

[@sebastiansaville2043]

That was really well done. A good drummer can make all the difference to this piece.

[@Alex-yu3wg]

[@rigging1377]

Absolutely amazing

[@m7digger]

Each variation of the song in the movie has a name, it's also named 'The Kiss', which is the tune we hear when Cora and Nathaniel dance.

[@monkeytennis8861]

It's called the Gael

[@m7digger]

@@monkeytennis8861
Not in the * m o v i e *, reread slowly until it pops in there... 'The Gael' is the original song composed by Dougie MacLean, which inspired Trevor Jones, who has declined it in several variations in the * movie *.....

[@tiapaea424]

Wowwwww 😭😭😭 salute 🫡

[@SnapperFish]

So good!!

[@richardportman8912]

Oh, a blacksmith courted me. I hope that fiddle player is still playing.

[@ThePigeonPack]

He's still very much the most talented in the band!

[@ryandooley5306]

I'd say the talent resides in the drummer- he's the one who keeps it all together @@ThePigeonPack
