http://www.musicscotland.com/acatalog/MusicScotland_Shooglen ifty_130.html In the USA http://cdbaby.com/cd/shooglenifty In Australia http://www.indie-cds.com/ Shooglenifty started playing tunes together many years ago in an Edinburgh venue called La Belle Angelle. The session grew more and more popular and soon afterwards the name Shooglenifty was thought up for the first gig in Belgium. Please check with the venues for appearance times for all shows on our gig list. Also check out our bit of Shoogle video!! (click on "videos":). It's the Shooglenifty gig at The Famous Speigel Tent during the Edinburgh Festival 2006 Filmed and edided by John Reed http://www.myspace.com/johnlreed |
