Tremendous sets from the top ceilidh dance band. A selection of sets for Scottish Ceilidh dancing, featuring a range of traditional and contemporary tunes, with some new compositions by Freeland Barbour and Ian Hardie.
Featuring Freeland Barbour (accordion), Ian Hardie (fiddle, bass), Kevin MacLeod (banjo, mandolin, tenor guitar) and Gus Millar (drums).
Freeland Barbour is arguably one of the finest accordionists in Scotland and has previous solo albums to his credit. He is also widely known for his earlier work with the Wallochmor Ceilidh Band, and as a composer. Ian Hardie, also a prolific composer, has recorded several solo albums and is also a member of leading folk band Jock Tamson’s Bairns.
Kevin MacLeod is a multi-instrumentalist who has one solo album, plus a recent duo album with ex-De Dannan lynchpin Alec Finn. Both feature Kevin’s amazing skills on stringed, fretted instruments. Gus Millar is a highly sought after ceilidh band drummer who also worked with the Wallochmor Ceilidh Band - he has wide experience within the Scottish Dance Band scene.
