It’s hard to choose just one standout gig or venue after so many years of performing! Every event is unique, but the best ones always have the same ingredients: the incredible energy of the dancers, the joy of the music, and the fun shared by everyone involved. There’s nothing better than seeing a room full of people laughing, dancing, and creating unforgettable memories together.
Probably weddings but special event parties are a close second!
We have been playing for Ceilidhs for over 30 years throughout Victoria and Australia.
We love Scottish & Irish folk music.
We typically arrive well before the agreed start time to set up and ensure everything is ready to go. Setup times can vary depending on the event and venue, especially if access to the performance area is more complex.
We’re always happy to work closely with both the venue and you as the client to ensure everything runs seamlessly.
Yes, we’re happy to perform outdoors! We do require access to a power source and adequate shade to protect our musicians and their instruments.
We’re happy to include any favourite dances you’d like, but we usually tailor our set to suit the abilities and energy of your guests, ensuring everyone has a great time.
