SKERRYVORE IN CHINA!
Skerryvore made their furthest venture to date travelling to the far east to perform in Beijing, China. The band were performing at the International Routes Event that was being held in Beijing from the 12th-15th of September, attracting over 4'500 people from all over the world. The guys also managed to fit in two other performances at music venue Ginkgo and went down a storm with locals and tourists alike.
"Beijing was an incredible experience for all of us." said piper Martin Gillespie. "However, coming from Tiree which has a population of around 700 to then being in a city with a population of 14 million really did take my breath away! The locals were extremely friendly, and we received a fantastic reception at all three of our performances. We met the head of the Beijing Caledonian Society regarding performing at one of thier annual events so hope to return to China again in the near future."
The band would like to say a special thanks to Olly at Ginkgo, Thomas at the Ritz and also Tao for his guided tour of the 'real' Beijing!
