Another Scottish festival with Fiona Ross, and only a week after the last! Drove up on the Thursday night for the 'Port Campbell Satelite Concert', which was well attended. We then performed at the Camperdown Court House Friday night and Theatre Royal, Saturday. Great, freezing cold weekend with lots of lovely people.
The Fiona Ross Band played at the one off 'Battle of Bannockburn' festival to celebrate 700 years of Scottish independence: 1314 - 2014.
Music was just one aspect of this festival which consisted of Highland dancing, Jousting, Pipe bands, Scottish market stalls, Archery and to top it off; a re-enactment of the 1314 battle. Been looking forward to this festival all year. It's always a calendar highlight, with this year's the best so far. I was fortunate enough to be performing with two groups: Fiona Ross Band and Classically Celtic. As well as being involved in the Harp Showcase Concert, Christian College Ceilidh Band and Feis Rois Project. Sure was one busy weekend!
Just to top things off my family band and I were made the 'Face of the Festival' for 2015! Next year just might be even better. |
