Iain Cathcart Scottish Dance Band
Bandleader Iain Cathcart has an impressive musical pedigree, having previously played with such notable Scottish Dance Bands as those of Marian Anderson, James Coutts, Bill Black, Ian Muir, Gordon Shand and The Glencraig Band.
His first gig as a bandleader was at Beith Accordion and Fiddle Club in 1990, and since then he and his band have been going from strength to strength. The Iain Cathcart Scottish Dance Band made their first Take the Floor broadcast in February 1993, and have been heard regularly on the programme over the last seventeen years. The band’s debut CD As If By Magic was released to huge acclaim after ten years of the band performing together, with another release on the horizon.
Iain is a member of the Executive Committee of The National Association of Accordion and Fiddle Clubs, and is the organiser of the annual Stanley Ceilidh Weekend that has raised thousands of pounds for charity. Iain also regularly acts as an adjudicator at festivals and competitions, so dancers can rest assured they are in good hands!
