Looking for good Scottish dance bands?
Scottish dance bands or ceilidh bands? There are limitless
combinations of bands, discos and entertainment groups available for hire - so why opt for a Scottish dance band for your special
event?
The main reason so many people opt for a Scottish dance band in the first place is that a good band
allows people of all ages to enjoy great dancing and experience a real party atmosphere that will be remembered for years to come.
You can have fun while you dance, chat while you dance, and if you so wish .... take a wee break at the bar
and watch all the others step the night away on the dance floor. Check out our special section on popular ceilidh dances and start to memorise
the steps for yourself!
   
 Why will you enjoy having a Scottish Dance Band
 It's a great way for people to dance, have fun, socialise and mix with others.
It suits people of all ages - we've witnessed toddlers of 3 to grannies of 93 on the floor!
You don't need to bring a partner with you. There'll be plenty of offers!
The music can be as quiet or as noisy as you want it to be.
You don't need experience. We'll talk and walk you through the dances - and at no time will you feel left out
or stranded.
You can dance as much or as little as you want. Ceilidh's can be great fun to watch from your seat!
The great thing about professional Scottish dance bands with good callers, is that the caller takes each person through every stage
of each dance at his/her own pace. Scottish dancing isn't difficult, most of us just need to be led through the steps until
it becomes second nature. Furthermore, an experienced caller will take the pressure off you in your role as organiser. As the host or hostess,
aren't you going to feel a bit embarassed looking out on an empty dance floor whilst the 'caller' is either absent or is hiding
behind his drumkit or accordion? We at Scotland's Ceilidh Band,
first and foremost pride ourselves in the quality and professionalism of our dance 'calling'. We will talk, and if necessary, walk
you through the jigs, reels and waltzes -every step of the way.
Scottish Dance Bands are perfect for -
Birthday, graduation or celebration party for your special person or
event.
A student party/ dance. A student ceilidh rarely need a good excuse!
A church, sports club or society social event - for funds or perhaps just for having fun.
A wedding reception - great way to include all your guests in the evening.
Fund raising event. Consider a fund raising or sponsored ceilidh - for your worthy cause.
Corporate social or entertainment event. Ideal for a festive function, conference highlight or just for
celebrating.

Our Scottish dance band works with some of the UK's finest dance 'callers' and can ensure that your audience will be in the best
possible hands for your special function. In our view this is crucial if everyone is going to enjoy themselves. All our
'callers' are well versed in running ceilidh functions for every occasion - and we pride ourselves in selecting dances to suit
the atmosphere of an event - as well as the ability of an audience.
Scotland's Ceilidh Band will lead the young, the old, experts and novices
alike, through the marches, reels, waltzes and jigs - at a pace that suits your guests and not just the band. We never forget
that you are our reason for us performing. Your enjoyment is our business. The success of your wedding, social or corporate
event is our no.1 priority. We're confident that you and your guests will have a great time in our company.
When you're organising a ceilidh, the venue is a lot less important than you think. Some of our liveliest ceilidhs we've
organised have been in church halls, small function suites and back street social clubs. When we provide the music and you
provide the numbers ..... let the good times begin.
We can provide you with free help and advice concerning any aspect of organisation to ensure your event is a success. After all, with
almost 40 years of combined experience, Donald and I have learned a lot about the art of organising successful functions and
providing wholesome, memorable entertainment for all. The only thing you need to do is encourage your guests to turn up on the night -
and make sure they're not too legless!
If needed, we will share our organisational experience with you to ensure your function arrangements on the night are a
success. We work closely with venue and hospitality staff and frequently with other musicians as well. Because we've played in almost
every major venue in Scotland, we've built up excellent relationships with conference organisers, hotel managers and key
personnel. Our knowledge of what works in a particular location will be used to good effect at your function or special
occasion.
