Profile
Fiddle-led Scottish and Irish 'rock' ceilidh band.
A truly electric four piece ceilidh band with fiddle/caller, bass, electric guitar and drums, adding an exciting, modern twist to traditional Ceilidh music.
The musicians have more years combined experience than they care to admit, both at home and internationally, and hail from the Central Belt - they play most places in Scotland, from the Borders to Perthshire.
Their dances are quite easy, even after a few drinks, and don’t worry if you don’t know the dances as they will guide you with full instructions for each one using fun-filled banter.
They specialise in weddings, and they also play ceilidhs for St Andrews Night, St Patricks Day, Burns Suppers, Christmas nights out, school dances, birthday parties, fund-raisers and corporate events.
They bring the house down in all venues - from castles to canvases, from hotels to huts – in fact any event or place that wants to enjoy an evening of merriment with exciting music. A DJ is always included to play your favourite song for the first dance and later in the evening if required.
They like to put the ‘ding’ in ‘wedding’, so contact them now to make sure your evening will genuinely rock!*
*NB: Their music is much better than their puns!

just wanted to say thanks again for putting on a great show for us. The Ceilidh Band was absolutely awesome on the night and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves . We got lots of positive feedback on how much fun the ceilidh was , everyone seem to be tapping along to the music and loved the jazzed up " rock " element of the ceilidh as opposed to a traditional one. I've got to give you full marks on our entrance, your introduction was timed to perfection and when the drum beat hit and the Canon in D started blaring out , the rooms atmosphere was electric . Loved the communication between us ,which is probably what made the night a success and Irene was really happy with how the ceilidh went , it got everyone dancing .
