Shotts appoints Andrew Lawson leading-drummer – November 16th

New Shotts L-D Andrew Lawson

After two months of back-and-forth and turmoil, the World Champion Shotts & Dykehead Caledonia Pipe Band finally settled on a drummer from within its ranks to help take the band into the future.

Why was this story important? For most top-grade bands making leadership changes, the more well known the new leader the better. But Shotts looked from within, to an accomplished drummer who relatively few in the pipe band world had heard of before. Time will tell in this instance, but often leaders are right there – they just need some encouragement and to be given a chance.
