If anyone should be convinced that Line dance is a serious dance genre that can be part of someone’s career, then point them in the direction of George Blick. This handsome young man of just 21 years of age has a golden future assured and Line dance has played a big part in it. Laurent fi nds out more from this future dance star…

George Blick was born in 1990 in the small Welsh town of Cowbridge. He says: “I started Line dance very young. My grandfather had to pick my Nan up from her Line dance class in Llantwit, so I went along to sit and watch.” As young George watched the dancers he thought to himself “I can do this” and he says: “That’s when it all went wrong because people started turning and changed walls as well as free styling! Yikes!” As he had joined in by then, he caused havoc on the dance fl oor. However the instructor, Stephanie Harris taught an easy dance ‘Ruby, Ruby’. This was the true beginning for George. “I picked it up and she could see I was interested. She then asked me if I wanted to start a children’s class and I said yes.” The class was a hit as 30 children turned up and George has been on dance fl oors ever since.

In this occasional

series we are going

to try and fi nd

out about some

of your favourite

choreographers.

Dawn Middleton spoke

with Alan Birchall.

Alan Alan Alan Alan Alan Alan Alan Alan Alan BirchallBirchallBirchallBirchallBirchallBirchall

What is the fi rst memory of dance in

your life?

Ooooh, that’s tough, it’s way back in my

childhood, I must have been about eight.

I can remember family gatherings of

aunts, uncles and cousins at Christmas

etc.... Their favourite ‘game’ was to get

in a circle, children in the middle (so we

couldn’t escape) put a pop tune on the

radiogram (remember them?), Freddie

and The Dreamers, Cliff Richard, Frank

Ifi eld – even Tommy Steele’s Little White

Bull and we all had to dance while they

watched! That was probably the fi rst and

last time I ever actually danced before

Line dance. Unless of course when in

a nappy I would ‘bob’ up and down to

music as babies do but if I did I have no

recollection of it.

Before you got into Line dance what

was your favourite genre?

Before Line dance, well there was

nothing dance wise apart from the

standard teenage boy things at disco’s,

the obligatory ‘handbag steps’. I was very

much into the music of the era and live

bands, so my heroes were The Beatles,

The Rolling Stones, Jethro Tull, Led

Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Deep Purple and

many others of that ilk. In fact, music and

good lyrics are very much a key element

in determining what I listen to and write to.

These days my listening choices are vast,

covering every genre, I put that down to

my parents as there was always music in

the house of every style. My Grandfather

played the piano, he played by ear in the

local pubs (he couldn’t use his hands!)

My mother also played piano but I have

no recollection of her playing in public. I

play guitar and keyboard, both probably

very badly now as I haven’t played either

properly for years.

When did you discover Line dance?

I would have been in my early to middle

40’s. The neighbours where all raving

about it but the local class was on a

Thursday night and the ‘Vicar Of Dibley’

had just appeared on our TV screens, so

no chance of me taking it up! However

the series fi nished and I toddled off to the

class, the rest is history.

What did it bring to you that other

dance genres had not?

That one is hard to say, really, as in my

case, there was no other dance genres

to compare it to, I’d seen dancing on TV

with The Young Generation, Pan’s People

and Hot Gossip, etc.

Once again, this latest festival has been a true success for its 2011 edition. Five days of fi esta, dance and happiness. Happiness in fi nding each other again, happiness in meeting new faces, happiness of discovery, pure fun and simply happiness in being there.This was the last year that this festival was going to be in its original position as 2012 will be in the new and huge Sun Stadium with an incredibly large space dedicated to dancers. I have tried to get a sneak preview of it but it is all top secret so you will have to unfortunately make do with my report on what we did get up to this year.

Every day, a tribute was paid to Robert Wanstreet, the original dancer of Country and Western in France who sadly died a few months ago. The most important event with Robert in mind in Mirande was the Flashmob. That had been Robert’s idea to start with, the idea being for a crowd to dance a simpler version of his choreography ‘Go Grease’. A terrible storm tried to sabotage our efforts but a large number of dancers who were extremely well motivated ran towards the covered Espace Danse (dance area). There, we all were treated to a fantastic spectacle of dancers in red, looking terrifi c with huge smiles and dancing together, hand in hand. At last, the festival could start!

Steve Healy from Linedancer was with us and this was the fi rst time he had

Festival Of Festivals

The festival of Mirande in France is an annual event that no Country music lover wants to miss. Dozens of concerts, hours of dancing, thousands of visitors make Mirande, one of the best of its kind. Michèle Godard gives us the low down on the 2011 vintage.

Franck Boucheraud, whose responsibilities

are numerous* has once again been to one

of Nashville’s most prestigious events and

sent us this great report.

*Talent Buyer of the Canadian Country Music Night in the

Country Bike Festival in Tours in France, Press conference

leader in one of the biggest country festivals in

Craponne.

A lot of things have changed for the better since

the fi rst Fan Fair in 1972 held at the Ryman

Auditorium in Nashville but its original spirit

lives on. The original idea was to create a

unique link between music makers, stars

and their fans.

Today the CMA festival is visited by

65,000 fans, each day. So this report is

not about giving you a minute by minute

account of what went on but rather to

describe the atmosphere and even

speak about those moments that

made it special for me.

The Music city, aka Nashville,

straight away from my arrival

gave me a typical surprise.

I witnessed the shooting

of the new music video

of Lady Antebellum

‘Just A Kiss’ at the hotel

Union Station. Whilst

many will argue at the

term Country applying to

Lady Antebellum, they are

nevertheless a talented

band who got the award

of Best Group of the

Year in 2010 at the

CMA.

Here’s To The

Happy Couple

Sandy Keys and her Line dance friends

would like to congratulate Tom and Sue

on their marriage. “Please give them our

very best wishes. Tom and Sue attend

The Oakland Mavericks run by Nick and

Alison on the Wirral. I previously wrote to

you about Sue winning the last prize at our

Christmas raffle last year and the prize was

an engagement ring from Tom. They are a

lovely couple and it is a joy to see the fun

they have when they are Line dancing. We

had a wonderful evening of Line dance to

celebrate their marriage in October. Good

dancing, good food and good company

what more do you need. Please give them

our thanks.”

Home From HomeEarlier this year Craig Bennett held an

all day charity event at the Alford Sports

& Social Club in Warrington, Cheshire in

aid of Ronald McDonald House charity

which aims to provide free

‘home away from home’

accommodation at hospitals

across the UK, enabling

families to stay close to their

child and maintain a degree of

normal family life. With the help

of Dee Musk, Shaz Walton,

Pat Stott, Alan Birchall, Kim

Ray, DJ’S Dave Baycroft and

Andrew Palmer they managed

to raise a fantastic £2,300. All

the choreographers and DJ’s gave their

time and effort for free which meant more

money for the charity and the raffle prizes

were donated by Derek Birley.

A great dance, a bit of a work out

but I thoroughly enjoy it.

James Wilson

A brilliant dance, I love the music.

The restart is very easy. There are

some different steps in there. The

1/2 turn cross 1/2 turn caused a few

problems but overall a definite hit.

Denise Nicholls

The cross 1/2 turns that swing one

way and then the other are my

favourite part of the dance. It’s fast

but the steps aren’t too hard, so if

you struggle to keep up, try taking

smaller steps.

David Spencer

This took a couple of walkthroughs

to master but well worth it. A great

It’s not easy to pin down Rachael

McEnaney. She always seems to be on

the move! Reading her Facebook page

can make you envious of her jet setter life,

York today, New York tomorrow passing

through France, Japan, or the rest of the

US. How does she do it? How does she

look so good on it? How does she stay so

approachable and natural?

I managed to catch up with Rachael

at the City of Light festival in Paris, ten

minutes before she was due to fl y off

somewhere else after a weekend of

teaching six of her latest dances as well

as MCing in English at the Saturday night

Show. Rachael is teaching more and

more workshops in France these days

and she is greatly appreciated, not only

for her dances and teaching style, which

is technically exact and fun, but also for

the fact that she teaches in fl uent French.

‘I love coming to France’ she tells

me, adding that she has seen some

tremendous developments over the last

three years. Rachael fi rst came to Paris

with Pedro Machado when she was 17,

her potential then was very obvious and

with the help of people such as Pedro

and Rob Fowler she went on to become

Female Superstar in Edmonton 2001.

She has never looked back.

Rachael feels that she was in the right

place at the right time in the development

of country western dance and thanks to

her natural talent has been able to make

her mark. I likened her to Jo Thompson,

a compliment which many other people

have also paid her. The same dance

talent, the same ability to produce

well constructed dances, the same

enthusiasm and ability to communicate

and beauty to boot.

I asked her how she approaches her

choreographies. “It’s the music fi rst of

all. Music has to strike me”. She has a

database of tunes that appeal to her and

often will not use a song immediately but

will keep some pieces for up to a year

before using them. Sometimes urgency

creeps in as she knows there will be a

danger of someone else using the track

before her. This was the case with Toes.

When listening to the music she will pick

out key words such as ‘kick’ or ‘turn’

and will then place these steps in the

appropriate place.



Rachael McEnaney

has had an amazing

career so far and

this year is a very

special one as she

celebrates her 30th

birthday. Maureen

Jessop speaks to the

golden girl of Line

dance and looks at

why Rachael is truly a

national treasure and

an international name.

Raise YourGlass

raiseyourglass.indd 1

26/08/2011 10:58



Raise YourGlassHowever, Rachel is not only a former

champion Line dancer, she is also an

accomplished couples dancer and especially

in West Coast Swing. She competes regularly

on the swing dance circuit in the States

dancing with various partners. She also

performs solo medley spotlights at festivals

or events such as the CBA. She has won

many, many awards for her choreographies,

teaching skills and personality being

acknowledged both by the profession and

the public. Her dances usually go straight to

the top of the charts.

As well as her travel, she also teaches a

regular class in her hometown of York and

has added to her programme the new craze

of Zumba. “I love it but can only teach it for

an hour because I get totally exhausted.”

Zumba is a fi tness programme to music

and the routines have to be choreographed,

another task that Rachael undertakes with

pleasure.

In addition to all her dance

accomplishments, she would make an

excellent business executive. Two years

ago I witnessed her working at a Masters

In Line event near Marseilles when she

undertook the organisation of the event at

the last moment as well as having to teach

workshops and perform in the Saturday

night show. Such is the nature of this young

woman that she wanted to share her 30th

birthday with the dance community and has

organised a Birthday Bash the weekend of

30th August in her home town of York. At

the time of writing these lines, it promised

to be a fun fi lled weekend with virtually non-

stop dancing, instruction by the very best

in international choreographers as well as

outings to the York hot spots.

Rachael told me that at 17 her father

wanted her to go to University, she replied

that if she hadn’t made it in the dance world

before she was 30 she’d go. Well, I guess

she can tear up that application form, safe in

the knowledge that not only she has made

it, but has become an International name, all

throughout the dance world.

My full name is Graciela Futten, most people call me Grace, my husband’s name is Manuel Santolaya. In Spain we do not change the name when we get married and on the marriage documents we are obliged to use both family names, mother and father as we have to decide which one is going to be used fi rst. My husband and I met in Kinshasa, ex Republique du Zaire, now Congo. Manuel is a dentist and I had to pay him a visit because I had very bad toothache and as they say, the rest is history. We got married in Spain in 1978. I was born in Argentina and my husband is from La Rioja, the wine region in the north of Spain. We came to live in Andalucía, Spain’s most southerly region, in 1979 and now both of us love it! We like the weather, the people, the way of life. Here people celebrate life and they minimise the less important things, the people are fun-loving and family-orientated.

We both like all kinds of music and we love to dance Latin, including Salsa, Bachata and Merengue. My husband very much enjoys Zarzuela, which is a

Spanish lyric-drama genre that alternates between spoken and sung scenes, the latter incorporating operatic and popular song, as well as dance. I love Bach, Mozart, Beethoven... but most of all we both love to dance.

I had heard about Line dance but I saw it for the fi rst time in Benalmádena, near to where we live. A patient of Manuel’s invited us one Saturday evening to the pub where he was working. We danced and there were some people singing and suddenly a group appeared dancing all together and having such fun. I asked our friend about them and he told me they were here on holiday from the UK. So I began to look for any information in the English newspapers in this area and I discovered our club, the Mississipi Coasters.

The Mississipi Coasters was founded 12 years ago and we are the fi rst Spanish to join. There are Argentinians, Belgians, Dutch, French Canadians, etc. We also receive a lot of holiday visitors because we appear in your magazine in the ‘Where 2 dance’ section.

Graciela Futten, joined the Mississipi Coasters Line dance club in Spain, three years ago. She has such a good time and has met some wonderful friends that she wanted to tell other Linedancer readers about it.

Mississippi Coasters

26/08/2011 09:45



In the fi rst months the club was run by a couple but they went back to the UK and Bob Horan, a fantastic dancer, took over with the help of his wife Pauline.Bob runs and teaches and his wife Pauline does the organising and the social side of the club. We often go out for lunches and dinners with dancing included. We have great fun! The last outing took place in a ‘venta’, a typical Spanish countryside restaurant. We have also been invited by the Town Hall of Mijas to do a demonstration and at various festivals. We dance three times a week in different places in the area. During December and August we close because Bob and Pauline go to the UK to visit their family.

We have made good friends through the club and we often meet up and visit at each others houses, which is very nice. There are people in our club who like mainly country, others likes latin but the main thing is all of us love to dance, to have fun and we always have a very nice atmosphere, if we make mistakes we laugh... and we leave our problems at the door! Well I think this gives you an idea of who we are and we would love you to come and visit and join us to dance.

Peel, on reviewing Laura Cantrell’s debut

album, commented, “This is my favourite

album of the last ten years and possibly

my life.” The name of the album was ‘Not

The Tremblin’ Kind’. I too thought it pretty

darn good. Laura went on to record fi ve

separate sessions for Peel’s radio show

and in 2005 dedicated ‘Humming By

The Flowered Vine ‘ to his memory.

Her second album ‘When The Roses

Bloom Again’ came my way in 2002.

For me it proved even better. She was

defi nitely an artist to watch out for.

In 2009 the Country Music Hall of Fame

in Nashville invited Laura to do a show to

link up with an exhibition dedicated to

Country music singer, Kitty Wells. The

climax of the show had the audience

singing along with Laura Cantrell to the

song that will always be associated

with Kitty Wells, ‘It Wasn’t God Who

Made Honky Tonk Angels’. Selecting

and performing those songs touched the

artist’s heart and left a lasting impression,

so much so that Laura decided to

dedicate an album to the great lady.

Now that the album is available in

Europe, Laura visited the United Kingdom

to tour and promote it. We met in London

and Laura turned out to be a gentle and

charming person. However, Laura knows

which direction she wants her life to go.

I asked, “Many artists who wish to make

it in Country music head for Nashville

and yet you were born and grew up in

Nashville and live in New York.” She

replied: “I live in Jackson Heights in

Queens. I came to New York to get to

school. I went to college and decided to

stay. I found there was a great community

there that embraced many different kinds

of music and a great, healthy, Country

music scene. I thought it would be easier

to grow up in that scene in New York

where in Nashville if you are getting a

local audience you are quickly on display.

The industry is so small and close knit it

can feel that there is a kind of intimacy. In

New York I was able to evolve and grow

up faster but not under the radar of the

Country music business itself.”

I understand Laura wanting a certain

anonymity to be able to grow in whatever

Richard Kirk speaks to Laura Cantrell about her latest

album and fi nds out more from an intriguing singer in

an exclusive Linedancer magazine interview.

genre she can excel at. When I ask what

genre she thinks is best suited to her, her

reply is very straightforward. “To me my

music is Country. That’s where I come

from, especially when I was growing up.

The older Country music was still being

played on the radio. People like Kitty

Wells, Hank Williams, Lefty Frizzell, Webb

Pierce and those artists of that generation

made huge impacts on me. They certainly

were not the contemporary artists of the

day and all those names were still all

around except for Hank. In my house we

also played a lot of Johnny Cash.”

She explains why her new album, ‘Kitty

Wells Dresses: Songs of the Queen of

Country Music’ is an important one to

her. “When I fi rst started to play guitar I

found that some of Kitty Wells’ tunes

were simple enough to play so that I

could accompany myself. So back then,

I did ‘I Don’t Claim To Be An Angel’ and

‘I Gave My Wedding Dress Away’. This

material was really familiar to me when I

decided to record her songs and do you

know what, there are still enough songs

to record another album! I think it would

be great for another artist to record them.

My friend, Amy Allison and I wrote

the title song of the album, ‘Kitty Wells

Dresses’ as our tribute to Kitty. I think

most people would say this music is

pure, classic Country but there are many,

many listeners who will keep discovering

and re-discovering it just as I did.”

Laura feels strongly about this style

of music. “How Country music comes

out on a commercial level we cannot

control. I loved making this album. The

young guys who backed me do a lot

of work on Lower Street in Nashville.

It gave me joy to see them perform.

You know, as long as people are still

learning to play the traditional it’s not

going to die out.”

THE ALBUM: Laura

CantrellKitty Wells Dresses:

Songs of the Queen of

Country Music

Label: Shoeshine

Records

Unlike the present day,

in the late 1940’s into the ‘50’s Country

music was male dominated. Kitty Wells

signed with Decca in 1952 and recorded

‘It Wasn’t God Who Made Honky Tonk

Angels’ an ‘answer’ song to Hank

Thompson’s ‘The Wild Side of Life’.

It caused a sensation with Kitty being

the fi rst female to have a Number One in

the Country charts. Hit followed hit into

the mid ‘60’s setting the scene for the new

ladies such as Tammy Wynette, Loretta

Lynn and Connie Smith. Kitty Wells truly

was the fi rst Queen of Country Music.

It is my belief that Laura Cantrell

deserves an award for keeping the

history of traditional Country music alive

and well.
