Festive Special

For the very best in traditional music and song, join Gary Innes for a festive edition of Take the Floor.

For the very best in traditional music and song, join Gary Innes for a festive edition of Take the Floor. This week we treat you to not one but two festive sessions recorded in our Aberdeen bistro studio over recent years. We have Craig Paton and his Scottish Dance Band recorded in 2017 with a fabulously festive programme as well as 60's Bairns recorded in 2019 with more Christmas classics and some of their favourite sets and tunes.

Plus Gary's guests are Jim and Susie Malcolm who join us for a new mini session to bring more festive cheer.

1 hour, 55 minutes
