Ceilidh Band #2161 For Hire Image

Profile


A versatile & lively Ceilidh, Barn Dance, Irish & Folk Rock band that will get feet tapping & people dancing.They've performed 100s of gigs over many years & are sure to give you a fantastic night of entertainment without breaking the bank.
Their musical style draws from a variety of Celtic, Folk and Country music sources - they like to mix it up a bit!
They can cater for Barn Dances & Ceilidhs, or provide a foot-tapping evening’s musical entertainment of songs & tunes for parties & weddings, pubs & social clubs, folk clubs, banquets, Irish & Scottish theme nights etc.
Although they normally go out as a duo, with a skillfully played arranger keyboard in the mix, they can sound like a 4 or 5 piece band, but without the price tag that goes with it. They’re probably the best value band of their kind in their area.
If required, they can come with an optional fiddle player.
(They then sound like a 6-piece band)

* Amazing value

* Great sound

Reviews:

Thank you so much for Saturday night.  The music was pitched perfectly and made for a wonderful evening.  It was great to see all ages taking part which would never happen with disco. I've had a lot of positive feedback and have been told it was a memorable occasion.  Once again thank you very much.
