FAQs

What sort of events do you run?

We run public ceilidhs and we’re available to book for private parties, weddings and events. Get in touch if you’d like to book us!

Where can you play?

We play most in Sheffield but can travel.

What are your ceilidhs like?

We are a young and lively ceilidh band. We’ll get even the coolest kids dancing. We blend the traditional, contemporary and bizarre: a unique twist on what a ceilidh is!

We like to lean into the chaos of the dancing. Expect a few of the classic dances, but also lots you’ve not done before.

How long do you play for? How many breaks do you take?

We find it works best if you are able to give us the freedom to adapt our set and the format of breaks as we go, to suit the crowd. Typically though we’ll do two sets of around 30-40 minutes (2-4 dances) with a 20 minute break in the middle and a few short breaks between dances.

What is your music like?

We play a mixture of Klezmer, Irish, Scottish and English tunes. We also like to mix in some electronic music to liven the mood sometimes.

Do you have your own PA?

We usually provide our own PA. If you are having multiple bands we can coordinate with your sound engineer to use theirs.

Can you provide insurance and PAT test certificates for my venue?

We have full public liability insurance and our PA system is PAT tested. We can provide current certificates for this if necessary.

How much space do you need?

For the band, we require an area of around 5x3m, though we can squish a little if there isn’t much room.

The dancing space will obviously depend on the number of people dancing but as a rough minimum, 0.8m² per dancer.

How can I pay for your services?

We accept cash or bank transfer.
