Runrig were a Scottish folk rock band founded by brothers Calum and Rory Macdonald in 1973 in Portree, Isle of Skye, Scotland. The band was popular across the United Kingdom, Denmark and Germany and was notable for combining original songs in Gaelic with a rock sound, thus reflecting the Gaelic culture.

Runrig began in 1973 as a three-piece named the "Run Rig Dance Band", its members comprising Calum Macdonald and Rory Macdonald, and their friend, accordionist Blair Douglas.
