Mixed Instrument - Ceilidh Caleerie Ceilidh Band 7pm
The Scots Music Group’s ceilidh band will work on their current repertoire, add some new sets and play for dancing! New folk and instruments are particularly welcome, and there will be time in class for new recruits to work at their own pace. We will also be looking at rhythms, harmonies, accompaniments and working on the skills needed to play together as a band. There will be many opportunities to play for dancing at community events.
There is extra information for this class, but you must be logged in to see it.
