Whistlebinkies

Traditional Scottish music group The Whistlebinkies join Hawick Music Club for the first concert of the season.

For more than 40 years the Whistlebinkies have toured the world with their own brand of authentic Scottish traditional music and HML! are very happy to welcome them for our first concert of the season. Their music has been received with enduring enthusiasm wherever they have played. Using only acoustic instruments arranged to complement each other including the Scottish lowland and smallpipes, fiddle, flute, concertina, bass, percussion (Scottish style side drumming and bodhran), clarsach (celtic harp). Their music comes from all parts of the country: airs from the far west archipelago of St Kilda, Border ballad melodies, Shetland reels and song tunes from the land of Burns, Ayrshire. Always keen to advance the tradition, the group also performs a number of new works set within the musical parameters of what makes it sound ‘Scottish’ or ‘Celtic’.
