Lancash Barn Dance Mixer

Lancash Barn dance is usually danced to a tune named Lancastershire Barn
Dance. To hear a sample of this tune click here. It is available from the Lloyd Shaw
Foundation.
The Lloyd Shaw Foundation also has a description of the
dance that can be downloaded. Click here to download. The
dance is also described on page 254 of Dancing for Busy
People.
Of course, the best way to learn the dance is to see a video.
(Click here) Bob Riggs taught this dance at the Beginner Dance
Party Leaders Seminar in 2006. He used both the original tune
and another recording by Aaron Tippin named Ain’t Nothing
Wrong With The Radio. To hear this recording, click here.
Which music to use really depends on your audience. The LSF version is more
sedate. The Aaron Tippin version is more suited to western parties.
I have used both recordings on the same dance program. I usually do the original
music first and then the western music later in the evening.
