What is "dalla"

Dalla is a band specialising in traditional Cornish music, known for their festival and concert performances as well as providing music (until recently) for Noze looan dances. However, from 2013 onwards, the Dance element of the band's programme will be under the name 'Skillywidden' whilst the other performances will continue under the name 'Dalla'.

Members play the clarinet, bouzouki, fiddle, viola, accordion and percussion. They sing in both Cornish and English.

Various members of Dalla formerly played in Bucca (a Cornish band named for the supernatural sea deities called Bucca), Sowena, Anao Atao and other bands. The music displays influences from these previous sounds. Dalla often appear with many additional instruments, which vary from event to event.
