Bob Liddle is a musician from Kelso, Scottish Borders. His main instrument is 5-row Button Accordion but Bob also plays Highland Bagpipes, Guitar, Keyboards, Drums, Bass and Bohdran. Bob is a solo artiste who plays around the Scottish Borders and further afield at clubs, functions and weddings. The accordion Bob uses is midi-fitted and therefore he can cater for all types of music including Scottish, Country, MOR and Rock. Bob also plays in Kelso Pipe Band and Coldstream Pipe Band and is a regular attender at Kelso Accordion Club which meets every month in the Cross Keys Hotel, Kelso, and Kelso Folk Club, which meets every Friday night in the Cobbles Inn, Kelso. Bob has played the accordion since aged 9 and has played all over the UK and at various events in France and Spain. His albums are scattered throughout the world as far as Australia and New Zealand and several of Bob's compositions have featured on other well known Scottish Dance Band recordings and radio broadcasts. LATEST NEWS - "Softly Flows The Tweed" was nominated in the "BEST CD" category for the "Box & Fiddle" awards to be held in June. Unfortunately I didn't win the award, but just to get nominated was an achievement in itself. I was also nominated for "Club Supporter of the Year", but again got pipped at the post. Never mind, it was a good day out and I got to play a couple of sets with an "all star" backing band.
