Ceilidh Dance Friday 23rd February 2018

 

The evening was opened, in the usual venue, The Osprey Suite, Commodore Hotel, Helensburgh, by the Association President, John Johnston, who welcomed all present.

A lively nights music for the function was provided by well known local accordionist, Stuart  McKeown,  providing as usual, an excellent performance on the 'box'.

 

We also had the privilege of having with us tonight, our guest artiste, soloist Kirsten Easdale, who provided us with an absolutely delightful selection of Scots and Gaelic songs, with even a touch of French input as well

…All a real treat.

Kirsten is a Traditional Scottish Folk Singer with a an international reputation, who has  toured and performed at major international events worldwide. 

We will be fortunate indeed, to have her perform for us again at any time in the future.

Accompanying (and also performing solo) was Gregor Lowery with his own unique blend of accordion music.

The numbers attending tonight, although again a little disappointing with fifty members and four guests, but all enjoyed a great nights entertainment and dancing.

The raffle this month raised £163 , so thanks go to all who donated and all who purchased tickets.
