Profile
We are a modern ceilidh band with a folk-rock sound; tunes played on the mandolin or banjo with full electric backing.
This ceilidh band performs a wide range of jigs, reels and hornpipes for the popular dances, eg Gay Gordons, Strip the Willow, Canadian barn dance, Dashing White Seergeant and others.
