Dance Information

This strathspey, Seattle Landing, was inspired by the tune of the same name written by Fred Moyes. The music was written for the Seattle Branch when Fred visited in February 1998.

Looking For A Latte is the alternate name for the dance, a reference to Seattle's reputation as the Latte capital of the universe.

Seattle is a seaport city on the West Coast of the United States, the seat of King County, Washington. Seattle is the largest city in both the state of Washington and the Pacific Northwest region of North America.
