The Occasionals - Back In Step
The hard working and favourite Scottish ceilidh/dance band The Occasionals includes founder and ace accordionist Freeland Barbour, Runrig’s lead guitarist Malcolm Jones, Mairi Campbell (fiddle, viola), stringed maestro Kevin MacLeod (tenor banjo, mandolin, octave mandolin, guitar), Neil MacMillan (piano) and Gus Millar (drums).
The sets show clearly which dances they may be used for and also alternative dances they are suitable for. This album is often used for smaller groups of dancers where a live band is not available.
This is a classic Scottish dance band album.
What a line-up to dance to, and what a sound to simply sit and listen to. Brilliant.
