More Info
We play Celtic dance music for Irish and Scottish ceilidhs as well as sing Celtic songs. While we can do a couple of songs in other genres, we are Not a rock band., we are a folk group. We bring our own sound system and need access to power, so we can’t play in the middle of a paddock without a very long power cord !. We also need shade if it’s outdoors and rain doesn’t mix well with sound gear. Three of our members have played in pipe bands and one of these is an Uilleann piper. We also have three fiddle players, two banjo players and three guitar players. Yes, most of us are multi instrumentalists. We can also add tin whistle, bodhran, concertina, and octave mandolin.
