North Sea Gas Coming to the 2014 Topsfield Fair!

August 2014-

The 2014 Topsfield Fair is pleased to announce that North Sea Gas, one of Scotland’s most popular and highly entertaining folk bands, will be performing on Monday October 6 at the Grandstand.  Not only does this band feature guitars, but they also use mandolins, fiddles, bouzoukis, whistles, bodhrans, and banjos to enhance their dynamic Celtic/Scottish sound.  They have recorded over sixteen albums, won the 2013 Album of the Year Award from Celtic U.S., and received the Gold and Silver disc awards from the Scottish Music Industry Association.   The band has received rave reviews from John ORegan Living Tradition Magazine, Edinburghguide.com, and the Scots Magazine.  Celtic Radio states “The band displays an attachment and a reverence for their roots from the very start. The music feels genuine, unpretentious and spontaneous, with a fondness for storytelling and beautiful harmonies.”If you appreciate the kind of band that offers not only heartfelt ballads but also rousing sing-alongs and up-tempos, this is the band for you!   Dave Gilfillan, Ronnie Macdonald, and Grant Simpson of North Sea Gas will be headlining at the 2014 Topsfield Fair Grandstand at 2:00 PM and 7:00 PM on October 6.  Take advantage of Senior Citizens Day by getting your discounts at the ticket counter!
