For the very best in traditional music, join Gary Innes for Take the Floor. We have a brilliant debut session this week from The Ceilidh Collective. Although there are some faces in this band that will be well known to you Take the Floor listeners, this is a brand new configuration and line up for you.

As guest, Gary is joined by Ellie Beaton, this year's winner of the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year Competition. Now, half a year on from her winning performance in the final, we find out what she has been up to since, and whether her win has truly sunken in yet.
