Spanish stroll over for gigs

AN EXCHANGE deal involving a city-based ceilidh club has resulted in a six-gig tour by eye-catching Spanish dancers.

Ceilidh Caleerie, an off-shoot of the Scots Music Group, invited the colourful 'Sevillanas' over for a series of performances including at a Portobello and the Farmers' Market at Castle Terrace.

And it is hoped the Aires de Alcossebre group will invite the ceilidh group over to Spain's Orange Blossom coast sometime next year.

Sue Seller, who helped organise the visit earlier this month, said: "The dancers responded like true professionals to the varying venues, and persuaded each audience to join in with a few rumbas at the end of each performance.
