Looking for a great ceilidh band ....

"There's Ceilidh Bands .... and there's Scotland's Ceilidh Band"


Unless you book a ceilidh band that comes 'recommended', you'll be searching in the dark. Are the players experienced? Have they come together in the last few weeks? Or have they played together for years? How professional is the 'caller'? Will your guests be left to guess the steps? Will the dance floor be brimming with noise, excitement and energy? Will your special night be at best a non-event? Or worse still, will it be remembered in years to come as having shared the same characteristics as the proverbial 'damp squib'?

A Scottish dance group is only as good as its leader and its players. Tony & Donald, the organisers of Scotland's Ceilidh Band, come with a 20-year track record in the Scottish traditional music scene. Few other organisers can provide this depth of expertise and insider-knowledge on how to deliver a memorable performance along with a great party atmosphere.
  

 


"We had a fantastic ceilidh.  Not only was the music perfect but your excellent dance calling ensured that no one was too intimidated to have a go.  Those who had never been to a ceilidh before, (and there were several), and those who had been to many - all had a wonderful evening.  We're sure were all a few pounds lighter by the end of the night. Thanks a million!"


Fiona & Neil Kendall, Wedding Ceilidh
(Grosvenor Hotel, Edinburgh, 1st September '07)

  

 






   


"Anyone who hasn't been ceilidh dancing before will be able to dance by the time they leave. The best comments we had at our wedding were from our English guests - they absolutely raved about you from start to finish."


Gus & Lorraine McLean, Southend on Sea, (Wedding Ceilidh)
 


                   


 


"The success of our wedding night was mostly down to yourselves. People put it up there as one of the best nights they've ever had."
"The ability to marry everyone into the celebration quickly and effectively - it has to be the biggest thing you've got going for you."


Eddie Russell, Dunblane, (Wedding Ceilidh)

"We enjoyed ourselves from the moment we arrived - till the last waltz. You were great and the caller did a magnificent job of including everyone" - J. Smith, Dalry

"I didn't know what to expect as it had been years since I had been to a ceilidh, let alone booked one! However, from the moment I contacted you, I received nothing but helpfulness and reassurance. My daughter's wedding will be remembered for years to come". - A. Harkness, Edinburgh

"We needed to raise money for charity at short notice and didn't know where to start. On the recommendation of one of our members we contacted Scotland's Ceildh Band, and both the fundraising advice and the event itself surpassed all our expectations - we raised over £1000 on the night." - D. Jeffreys, Glasgow

"Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without the fun and entertainment you gave us  - you'll be remembered for years to come." - M. Bowes, Glasgow

"You're ability to get an audience on the floor and dancing the stops was amazing - half of our audience were from England and didn't know what a ceildh was until they met you!" - S. Purvis - Portsmouth
