MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards: Off the Beaten Track by Tom Orr Band

October 1, 2015 By simon 0 Comments

Off-the-Beaten-Track-Cover-SquareCongratulations to Tom Orr Band who’s album Off the Beaten Track has been nominated in Album of the Year (sponsored by Birnam CD) in the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards 2015. Vote now!

We asked Tom Orr Band about their album Off the Beaten Track.

This album has energy, flair and precision of the highest caliber. The album is packed with tunes arranged and played in a fashion unique to The Tom Orr Band. Variety is the name of the game here, with tracks ranging from vintage pipe tunes to hot-off-the-press compositions, duets and adventurous reels, all of which demonstrate the wide capabilities of a traditional 6 piece line up played at its very best.

About Tom Orr Band
‘Dance Band of the Year’ at the Scots Trad Music Awards, the Tom Orr Band has remained one of the brightest and leading exponents of Scottish Dance Band music, influencing young musicians across the country.
‘Off the Beaten Track’ presents the band at their very best.
