We have been lucky enough...
....to spend a couple of evenings with this fabulous ceilidh band to celebrate different occasions. On both, we have had an excellent time as have our guests, for many of them, it was their first introduction to a ceilidh.
The music was great - lively and well played.
As importantly, the dances were clearly called with patience and good humour, making it a really fun night out.
Their ceilidhs ensure that all age groups can join in and strangers the beginning of the evening, soon become friends.
We wouldn't hesitate to book them again.

Well! What a party!
Thank you so much for my surprise Big Birthday ceilidh, not that it took much working out to know that it would be just what I wanted - the previous Big Birthday ceilidh was just as good. The music was great, the instruments varied as were the dances. The walk-throughs and calling tried to keep us all in order, but it didn't really matter - mistakes were just as enjoyable as getting it right, hilarious in fact!
With dances ranging from fairly simple circle types to ones requiring dipping and diving (!!!) and everything in between - lots for everyone to have a go at.....though I never get how in, Lucky Seven, where you count 7 partners, how you can end up with partnerless dancers! More laughs - right through really and a great way to spend a Big (or any other) birthday! Thank you, thank you, thank you (can I book you for 2028 please!!)

Great stuff, yet again. I missed my giggling partner Dave, but strangely the dance seemed to go better without him?.... There was just enough rest time between dances to allow me to breath and do them all. such fun! Bridget...again...2019
