Hootenanny is an annual New Year's Eve music show presented by Jools Holland as an off-shoot of his Later... with Jools Holland series. It is generally broadcast between 11pm on 31 December and around 1am the following morning. It is broadcast in the United Kingdom on BBC Two.

The show generally features a wide variety of musical acts from various genres (as with Later), who perform both before and after midnight. All the guests (drawn from across the world of showbusiness) and other guest audience members present, and the artists themselves, get involved in the Hogmanay party atmosphere and there is a countdown to the midnight start of the New Year, followed by a traditional rendition of Auld Lang Syne, often with the Pipes and Drums of the Scots Guards. Among the regular events of the evening is the spot where Holland asks actor and comedian Rowland Rivron his predictions for the year ahead/his New Year's resolutions.

The title of the show is a misnomer, as a hootenanny is an informal festive performance by folk singers, often with audience participation using acoustic instruments.

[edit] Pre-recording

Some claim that the show deceives viewers into thinking that the show is broadcast live, but the BBC itself has admitted that the show is not broadcast live and is instead "an idealised New Year's Eve party with a line-up that would surely be impossible to deliver on December 31".[1] BBC once made a mistake by mistiming the pretend 12:00am with the one in reality when the show went out, resulting in repeated mentions of New Year's Eve instead of New Years Day many times after 12:00am actually struck.[1]

[edit] 2006/07 edition

Acts that appeared in 2006/07 included The Kooks, The Zutons and Seasick Steve, comedian Adrian Edmondson, a regular on the show, was joined by Jools and his band to perform a swing version of popular Sex Pistols song "Anarchy in the U.K.". Also appearing on the show was Amy Winehouse collaborating with Paul Weller on two tracks. I Heard It Through The Grapevine and Don't Go to Strangers, originally recorded by Etta Jones.

Kate Rusby sang 'Fair Thee Well' as Midnight struck, accompanied by the 1st Batallion of Scots Guards.
