There are many different styles of Scottish dance (Ceilidh, Reeling, Scottish Country Dance and Old Time are just four of them) and each requires a different nuance from the music to accompany the dance. The Glencraig Band is one of the few bands that specialises in playing for all types of Scottish social dancing and leader Nicol MacLaren is passionate about set construction and arrangement to match the dance and maximise the enjoyment of dancer and listener alike. In this recording they capture the mood and feeling of the Ceilidh – informal dance enjoyment for all. The CD booklet has full written dance instructions for each dance.
Lead Accordion – Nicol MacLaren; fiddle – Gordon Howe; second accordion – Neil Caul; piano – Isobel Hodgson; double bass – John Sinton; drums – David Bell.
