Thanks to Pitmedden Music Festival

Pitmedden Community Festival was a great success last night, in spite of the constant rain. Our music went down really well with the large crowd and a very positive review was written about the gig in the Press and Journal.

"...with the superb Edinburgh-based band Modhan headlining. Modhan have created a fascinating blend of traditional Scottish music married with splashes of jazz and funk. The result, as you can hear on their new album The Admirals Fireworks, is constantly surprising world music that charms and engages." (Press and Journal, p6, 23/06/2012, Roddy Phillips)

 Thanks to the festival for asking us to play and thanks for everyone who came down for braving the cold and the rain.

Newspaper Article

There was a great article written about us in one of Aberdeenshire's local newpapers, getting a bit of publicity before the Pitmedden Community Music Festival, see previous post.

"Smooth basslines, jaunty fiddles and catchy acoustic guitar riffs mix with whistles, mandolins, bongos and drums for a unique sound hailing disparate musical traditions."

We are delighted to be headlining the Friday night at the Pitmedden Music Festival, a community festival up in Aberdeenshire in a couple of weeks. If you happen to be in the area then not only will you see some great music but all of it will be enjoyed in the beautiful surroundings of Pitmedden Gardens.
