Shetland can proudly boast a number of top class Scottish dance bands and the Alan Nicolson band certainly fall into this category.
All year round regulars on the Shetland music scene, and are famed for their participation in sessions held in Shetland's world-famous music pub, The Lounge, every Wednesday evening. The band have also performed a number of times on the UK mainland. They regularly attract national air-play on such programmes as BBC Scotland's 'Take the Floor', largely thanks to their well-received album 'The Plough and the Stars'. Links |
