Coscán performed a series of concerts in the begining of March at the Slainte Music and Film Festival in Lens, France. This festival marked Coscán's 10th year as a 4 piece Trad/Folk band. The music was well received at the various venues in Lens and the surrounding areas. We even performed at a local school which was most rewarding. Time was also found to visit the WW1 cemeteries. A very moving experience and one which will not be forgotten. Many thanks to Diddier and crew for making it all happen.
