Music video of the Clarty Cloot Ceilidh Band (and friends) playing lively Scottish fiddle music at a ceilidh in Ednam in the Scottish Borders (Scotland). A ceilidh is a social event and party with music and dancing. This was the last dance of the evening and is called the "Circassan Circle".

The music is a set of reels:


   Tunes:
     "Spootiskerry"
     "Willafjord"
     "Brenda Stubert's Reel"


The Peninsula Scottish Fiddlers, from Northern California, were on tour in the area in 2008 and played a concert in Hawick the day before. Colyn Fischer, a co-director of PSF at the time of the tour, played fiddle with the ceilidh band. The end of this video has a short interview with Colyn, Rachel Cross (fiddle) and Sandy Watson (guitar).
