The BS Ceilidh/ Barn Dance Band

Although basically an Irish Ceilidh Band, the BS Band can also include American, Scottish and English if desired.The band play traditional music, mostly celtic style, for ceilidhs at weddings, parties, universities, schools, fund-raisers and gatherings of all sorts.

The band line-up includes flutes and recorder/ guitar/ fiddle, cittern and banjo and the dance caller and MC. A larger band can be offered with the addition of flute/ guitar/fiddle.

At their dances there are usually some people who've done some ceilidh dancing before and a majority who don't know quite what to expect. That's where Joyce, their caller, comes in. She sorts out the galloping from the promenading and the stripping-the-willow from the dipping-and-diving. No previous dancing experience is required!

Music includes Irish, Scottish, English and American.
