The Staffin Island Ceilidh Band
Dundee, Scotland
We are a 5 piece Ceilidh band, with a dedicated caller, in Central Scotland. With over 30 cover songs and counting, 18, we are able to adapt our performance for all audiences. We teach 18 traditional, uncommon and complex dances. We also play a number of tuneful, lively arrangements.
Our dedicated caller is an expert at getting bums off seats and onto the dance floor. He has danced and taught all over the world. Our typical set up includes two harmonising fiddles, a fret less bass, acoustic guitar, and drum kit.
We are more than happy to learn a song for your event, we love a creative challenge.
All our equipment is PAT tested, we have public liability, and a top notch PA system. Our services include a tasteful playlist of trad tunes for breaks in the music and dancing.
