Cammy Goodall is tired of apologising for his lamentable elevator pitch. How to shoehorn a life-well-lived into a twenty second vox-pop? He is well aware that even those that know him best are only aware of perhaps 40% of what fills his time. 

Cammy's education was undertaken at public expense, but failed to prove comprehensive. At the stupid age of 16, he packed his troubles in a kit bag and joined the army as an entertainer: you might say he was a musician, if you viewed percussion kindly. The army took him to most corners of the globe, since it's spherical properties are still incomprehensible to a soldier.

In a desperate attempt to sound like a real performer, he grasped opportunities to play at the White House, Hong Kong's handover ceremony, Madison Square Gardens and Red Square. 

So much for his grown-up job in the Army: now Cammy is happy "stringing blethers up in rhyme for fools to sing". He befriends tour clients, he drums, he speaks, he sings, he marches and he'll happily saw a mandolin in half. Court Jester or Concierge - you can decide.

During Cammy Goodall's hectic summer months, he hosts Scotland's longest running Dinner show at Prestonfield - the world-famous "Taste of Scotland" show and he is also still heavily involved in the production of The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

 

His inexhaustible store of anecdotes will have the company in stitches, but having been a Drum Major, he'll make them sit up and take notice, too. Cammy is popularly held in esteem as the world's leading authority on Robert Burns in performance, both in rhyme and in song and is a member of the Association of Scottish Toastmasters.
