It being Burns' night last, my thoughts wandered to the memory of my lovely scottish mother and I ended up spending the evening trawling Youtube listening to a diverse selection of scottish tunes.
I came upon a name I recognised.."NO" not the 'Chilli Peppers' but the Red Hot Chilli Pipers!
I knew the name 'cos they are one of the artists booked to appear at the first folk festival I will be attending this year
SHEPLEY FOLK FESTIVAL
If this video is anything to go by it should be a good gig, bagpipes with attitude, drums with a Scottish accent, it's a great fusion of scottish traditional and rock.....roll on May
I even think my mother who would be in her eighties now would have enjoyed it, although not as much as she used to enjoy listening to Kenneth McKellar and Andy Stewart
