James Grieve Band
James and Ellen Grieve are a son and mother duo from the Orkney island of Rousay. They form the core of the James Grieve Dance Band, playing for traditional Scottish, ceilidh, or mixed dances.
As a duo, their main influences are traditional Scottish and Irish music. Both James and Ellen play accordion, with James alternating between the box and acoustic guitar, and Ellen also providing vocals. For concerts they provide a mixture of songs and tunes, interspersed with plenty humour and banter.
