Distil 1

Active 1 year ago.
12:00 am, October 24, 2002 — 12:00 am, October 27, 2002 at Mill Hotel, New Lanark.

Distil is a twice yearly gathering of musicians rooted in folk and traditional music, but who are interested in expanding their creative horizons into other other areas of musical practice. Distil, which was established in 2002, allows musicians to work with experienced practitioners from other music worlds: jazz, orchestral, contemporary, in a mutual exchange of ideas and experience.

 The Distil Workshops take place at  New Lanark, a  World Heritage site with a  beautifully restored 18th century cotton mill village nestled in the spectacular south Lanarkshire valley in southern Scotland, close to the Falls of Clyde and less than an hour from Edinburgh and Glasgow.
