The Horsenecks & Cahalan Morrison
Join us for an evening of world-class bluegrass and American old time music with The Horsenecks and Cahalen Morrison, some of the finest practitioners in their genre. Presented by Old School Thornhill and local Americana songwriter Sarah Jane Scouten, this will be an unmissable night.
The Horsenecks are Gabrielle Macrae and Barry Southern. Based in Astoria, Oregon, they are two multi-instrumentalists who have come together from traditional music backgrounds and found a sound that weaves through layers of influence that include early Appalachian stringband music, classic country, bluegrass and original folk.
Gabrielle's fiery fiddle style is the result of being raised in the Old Time music hotbed of Portland, OR and being exposed to the fiddle traditions of the Southeast US through years of traveling to festivals and learning from some of the greatest players in the genre. She gained notoriety as a clawhammer banjo player through her work with the Macrae Sisters, and formed the Horsenecks with Barry after the two met at a music festival in 2012. Barry’s banjo and guitar playing range from thrilling and high-octane to moody and captivating, and his versatility shines whether flatpicking, playing clawhammer, or driving three-finger banjo. Barry has been a luminary in his home town of Liverpool’s music scene for over 20 years, playing lead guitar with cult heroes Tramp Attack, banjo with Liverpool's popular bluegrass party band The Loose Moose Stringband, and many more groups in the UK’s bluegrass and old time scene. Both songwriters bring together their background in traditional music and modern influences across many genres to create a catalog of songs that speak to their place in the evolving story of traditional music. Their deft musicianship, powerful harmony singing, and creative instincts with old and new material have earned them a place among the leading interpreters of Old Time music today.

Cahalen Morrison -- Originally hailing from the high desert of Northern New Mexico, Cahalen has been touring solo, as a duo with Eli West, and with his band Western Centuries over the past 15 years. Cahalen has performed on stage with the likes of Tim O’Brien, Kelly Joe Phelps, Hot Rize, David Grisman, Dirk Powell, Crooked Still, Sierra Hull, Jerry Douglas, Phil Cunningham, Aly Bain and Kris Drever.
Well known for his singular turn of phrase and curiously poignant songs, he dips deep into the well of tradition while continuously pushing boundaries of contemporary songwriting. Cahalen is equally at home on guitar, banjo, mandolin, singing three part harmony or unaccompanied. Cahalen has played all over the United States, Canada, The UK, Ireland and Western Europe, and at festivals such as Transatlantic Sessions, MerleFest, Red Wing Roots, Rockygrass, Wintergrass, Celebrate Brooklyn!, Strawberry Music Festival, Sisters Folk Festival, Meadowgrass, Timber!, Shetland Folk Festival, Larmer Tree, Kilkenny Roots Festival, Celtic Connections, Bluegrass Jamboree and many more. Cahalen is based out of Glasgow, Scotland. Currently working on an exciting new project, he is also a regular at many sessions, eats as much black pudding as possible and can be found in one of the many beautiful parks or along the Clyde with his dog most evenings.

Public Consultation on Police Station Proposal
Thornhill Police Station has recently been closed after being deemed surplus to requirements by Police Scotland. The building was identified in the Thornhill Place Plan as a possible location for community led housing. It is a beautiful building which reflects the unique architecture of Thornhill and Old School Thornhill Development Trust (OST) believe it should be redeveloped for the benefit of the village.
We are currently exploring options to purchase the building and accompanying garden space. We hope to develop the site and breathe new life into this important building in the village, while helping to address identified local needs in housing and childcare.
We understand that there is a need for more affordable housing in the village and have evidenced this more concretely through a Housing Need and Demand Assessment survey (HNDA) undertaken by South of Scotland Community Housing (SOSCH) in 2024. The survey demonstrated a demand locally for both smaller and family-sized homes. In addition to the homes, we are also exploring the possibility of using part of the building to accommodate a nursery business which could provide wrap around childcare. This has been identified as a need within the village and was highlighted in the Thornhill Place Plan.
We have commissioned local architect, John Murray to undertake a feasibility study for the building, which includes developing plans for how it could be brought back into use while working within its existing form. The layout option being explored includes a three-bedroom house and two one-bedroom flats.
We would now like to hear the views of the community about this proposal.
Let's know your opinion here : (*the link is in the bio at the top of our Instagram profile*)

If are a local Childcare provider and would like to express an interest in running the nursery please email us at hello@oldschoolthornhill.com
If you want to talk to us in person pop into the OST! We have copies of the plans in full to peruse.
**We are hosting an open event to discuss the proposal on 1st Oct 7pm**
