Lucky 13 by Red Thistle Music
Thirteen tracks from 2013… Lucky 13! This is Scottish Country Dance music recorded in a live setting, you can hear the energy of the dancers infusing the tracks with a special vitality. But these sets are more than just dance music. With a tune selection ranging from 18th century classics to modern favorites, from toe-tapping jigs and driving reels to lyrical strathspeys and lovely waltzes, there is a lot to provide listening pleasure. Please join us for an evening's music, and dancing, fun!
