Cuilidh ("Retreat") is the second music album by Scottish musician Julie Fowlis, which in 2008 won her the Album of the Year Award at the Scots Trad Music Awards and Best Folk Singer Award at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Music Awards.

"Hùg Air A' Bhonaid Mhòir" (Celebrate the Big Bonnet) is the second single taken from Cuilidh, released in 2008. The cover for the single features a photograph by Louis DeCarlo. The subject of the song is particularly humorous. The song, which is actually made up of two, is a set of Puirt a beul or Mouth Music.[http://www.juliefowlis.com/songs/c05-lyrics.html Hùg Air A' Bhonaid Mhòir] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080513050116/http://www.juliefowlis.com/songs/c05-lyrics.html |date=2008-05-13 }} official sleeve notes
