This band WOWED us last year and they're BAAAACK! Scotch Gambit is: David Knight (fiddle), Hanneke Cassel (fiddle), and Dave Wiesler (piano, guitar). Caller Susan Hankin. And how did they come up with that name? David Knight explains:'Scotch Gambit'is a variation on an opening move in chess in which the knight and the rook (or cassel) sacrifice the pawn-ano player in order to establish a superior board position! OK, braniac chess dude, let's DANCE!
