First up, we have a video recorded at a public 'Ceilidh' held in Exeter. You'll hear how we build the sound from a quiet start to allow the dancers to gain confidence while Martin calls the dance. With all these recordings, it's best if you listen through some good speakers or headphones to hear the full warmth of the sound.
Rochdale Coconut Dance
Recorded January 2011
Sue on flute, Simon on Guitar, Sarah on Sax, Bob on melodeon, and Trevor on bass, with Martin calling.
