Ewan and Alastair are stalwarts of the Band of Burns supergroup. Hailing respectively from the Isle of Lewis and Strathpeffer in Scotland, Alastair Caplin (The Langan Band, Band of Burns) and Ewan Macdonald (Root & Branch, Band of Burns) take audiences on an evocative and varied journey through the music of Scotland.

Expect a mix of blisteringly fast tune sets with heart- wrenchingly beautiful laments on fiddles, guitar, mandolin and bouzouki. Gaelic song from the duo’s native Gàidhealtachd also feature heavily in the set, with poignant harmonium-accompanied Òrain Mòra (‘great songs’) interspersed with rapid tongue-twisting pùirt-a-beul (Gaelic mouth-music).

We also continue tonight with our tradition of inviting musicians from the local Scottish music group , which is led by Andy Clark from Shotley Crue, to join in the night to help make it a real celebration , not just of Burns but a lot of unforgettable music and song.

Doors open at 7 . Music from 7.30 ( Overture session from 7.20)

Entrance £12

- Has your child sat 4+ or 7+ assessments?

  I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA!

  "You have no idea why" To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour

  As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
