Jimmy Blair Accordion Orchestra, Glasgow – UK

Jimmy Blair Accordion Orchestra
The Jimmy Blair Accordion Orchestra was originally formed by Jimmy Blair in the early 1970s, evolving into several bands that competed at Preparatory, Elementary, Intermediate and Advanced levels in NAO regional competitions and the All Britain Championships. By the late 1970s, the orchestra was the dominant force on the competition scene, winning competitions in all orchestra sections as well as many of the band members winning group, duet and solo sections. The band also played concerts at home and abroad, and foreign visits included trips to France, Belgium and Canada. With the untimely death of Jimmy Blair in 1981, the JBAO was taken over by his wife Lola, and then by son Gary. Gary maintained the high standard of the band, but unfortunately the band folded in the later 1980s due to a lack of commitment.

In August 2009 Gary Blair decided the time was right to form a new orchestra under the prestigious Jimmy Blair Accordion Orchestra name. The new orchestra entered the NAO West of Scotland Championships in February 2010, came first in all their sections, with the intention of competing at the NAO UK Championships, Blackpool, in the Elementary and Advanced sections, April 25th to 25th.

The new orchestra also recently won through at the semi-finals of the 'Quest for Talent' competition at the David Lloyd Centre, Glasgow, and will be in the finals of the competition which are to be held in the Paisley Town Hall, March 26th. Hopefully the band will be able to impress yet again and go the full way in the competition!

The Jimmy Blair Accordion Orchestra will perform in concert at St Andrew's Academy, Barrhead Road, Paisley PA2 7LG, on Saturday March 13th, 7.30pm.
