description: "Dougie MacLean, OBE is a Scottish singer-songwriter, composer, multi-instrumentalist, and record producer. Described by AllMusic as \"one of Scotland's premier singer-songwriters\", MacLean has performed both under his own name, and as part of multiple folk bands, since the mid 1970s. His most famous pieces include \"Caledonia\", which is often dubbed Scotland's \"unofficial national anthem\"; and \"The Gael\", which became the main theme to the 1992 film The Last of the Mohicans."
