Band Members
 Allan Smeaton
Allan lives in the town of Arbroath in Scotland and is the only full time male member of the band, so he has a hard job of trying to keep the ladies under control! He has been taking accordion lessons since the age of eight, and has now been learning with Steven Carcary for over ten years. He is a keen accordionist and also has other hobies such as quadbiking, mountain biking and various other outdoor activities, and has recently aquired a Hohner Gola.
Lisa Laird
Lisa hailes from the town of Forfar in Scotland and is the eldest band member. She has also been learning the accordion since she was eight years old, and she has been under Steven's tuition for the last few years. She loves to go to Ceilidh's, Concerts and Festivals and hopes to become a full-time musician and be as successful as her teacher one day!
Alisha Smeaton
Alisha is Allan's big sister and also comes from Arbroath. She is the drummer of the band, and started off learning when she was about ten years old with Andy James as her drum teacher. When she then became part of Steven Carcary's Young Accordionists in 2003 Steven Started to learn her the drums instead. She has also had a few lessons on the box, but decided to give it up and just stick to her drumming!
Kerr Barrack
Kerr will play keyboards with the band on occassion if we are guests at an accordion club or Festival.
