James Coutts Scottish Dance Band and Sydney Devine
For the very best in traditional music and song, join Gary Innes for Take the Floor. James Coutts and his Band are in session and singer Sydney Devine is our special guest.
For the very best in traditional music and song, join Gary Innes for Take the Floor. Our band session this week comes from 2016 and a special session recorded by James Coutts and his Scottish Dance Band to mark remembrance weekend. They have a programme of wartime favourites and some poignant pipe tunes to mark Armistice Day.
And Gary's guest is the legendary singer Sydney Devine. Sydney chats to Gary about his life and career from the White Heather Club to his years of touring and selling 15 million albums.
