East Lancashire Clog Dance (Pat Tracey style)by westminstermorrismen5,325 views
Correcting myself : Seeing this dance, I was thrown off by its title "traditional line dance" and thought it was American line dancing. This is Appalachian clogging, which evolved from British dances. Appalachian folk dancing merged the dance and music of Scottish/Irish immigrants with that of the African and Cherokee people in the South. This IS a line dance, since these dancers are in lines, but not the style popularized by John Travolta, which includes the influences I described. Sorry.

There is alot of Irish and Scott influence here. There in a alot of Irish and Scott influence in tenessee and the appalachias in music, dance, food, and whiskey. Due to the fact that most of the settelers of these areas were of Irish and Scott descent. Inlcuding my line of family from Scotland settling into the appalachias of Virginia and Tennessee

It's my understanding that American country line dancing evolved from Irish, English, Scottish, French, Russian and Spanish folk dances introduced by early settlers to the country. Irish and Spanish seem especially strong. Later African-Americans contributed blues, soul and jazz. John Travolta, in "Urban Cowboy" (1980) put it into the rock and roll genre, and through cowboy costumes, made it a symbol of the American west and the cowboy culture it never was part of. It has spread worldwide.

Yeah it probably did. A lot of the moves are similar, just like the music and fiddling style also bears similarities to Irish and Scottish fiddling. It just sort of morphed into something new over time.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this looks very similar to Irish dance, like it may have evolved from Irish traditional dance. Considering there was a large number of Irish who settled in the SOuth this would make sense.
