The Storming Northern Roots Band

Journal: Mike keeps you up to date with Striding Edge news!

January/February 2012
A very happy new year! Striding Edge have started their eighteenth year on the road and are looking forward to taking their Northern roots music around the community venues and function rooms of the North West once again. Its great to warm up to the new year with a couple of public Burns Night ceilidhs, at Slyne near Lancaster on the 28th January and on at Kirkland on February 4th. There is a strong crossover in our music with Scottish dance music and song...for example, Carolyn plays the Scottish border bagpipes, and we will be presenting some songs by Robbie Burns, the great bard of Scotland, plus some specially arranged Scottish dance tunes on these nights. For booking details on these shows, go to our calendar>>

Striding Edge @ Halton Community Centre: 22nd October 2011

Once again Striding Edge returned to play for the community of Halton in North Lancashire and this time it was a sell-out show with an energetic dance crowd of 100 people. An incredible night of storming dance-floor action. The organiser Susan wrote.:

"Thanks so much for giving us such a great night at our Centre on Saturday night. Everyone really enjoyed the evening."
