Jim Reid and the Band: Rolling Home


The Conundrum/ Ballochyle
or Rolling Home
on springthyme/ soundcloud

The Foundry Bar in the old fishing town of Arbroath had long been a home to local fiddlers and accordionists when, in 1976, Jim Reid gathered together a few of the regular musicians and headed for the Kinross Festival where they entered and won the Ceilidh Band competition. So was born the Foundry Bar Band. Since then the band has played at concerts and ceilidhs, clubs and festivals, village hall dances and weddings throughout the country, and of course they never miss their favourite traditional music festivals at Keith and Auchtermuchty. Here the band come rolling home – home to a quiet ceilidh in one of their regular haunts in the Angus countryside. The band are: Jim Reid (guitar, moothie & songs), Geordie Anderson (fiddle and song), Sandy Beattie (bass), Jim Brown and Harry Scott (button box), Jim Thomson (piano box), Marshall Rae (sticks) and Christine Stewart (guitar and song).
