Thanks to all the band members
for making it such a memorable night.

ST, 2007, birthday party.

We would like to thank you, the band and the caller very much for a very successful evening.
Everybody enjoyed the music and dancing.

We trust that you enjoyed the event as much as we did.
Thanks once again.

IM, 2007, birthday party.

 

A belated thank you for a wonderful evening - both we and all our guests thought you were superb.
Lots of people told us how much they enjoyed the dancing and the live music,
and we were very impressed by how many people you managed to get on the floor.

It really topped off a great day - thank you!

FW, 2006, wedding

Thanks for a great evening - everybody loved the music.

Will definitely call upon you again - hope you had fun too.

VS, 2006, family party

parties knees-ups sexy danceband EFDSS dance band

for ceilidhs, barn dances, country dance
jigs and reels from Ireland and Galicia
songs from yesterday and today

dances from England and the British Isles

we normally play in Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire,
Bristol and Bath, Wiltshire, Shropshire, the West Midlands
(and that little bit of north-west Surrey near Chertsey)

please note that we do not play Scottish music: sorry and that!

 

imagine the excitement of four hours' music and dancing from 8 pm till 12 midnight

imagine the pulsing rhythms of congas and bodhran

imagine the squeal of the electric violin

 

imagine the huge noise of the 12-string guitar

 

 

between the acts

 

our own caller will tell beginners what to do

(or remind experts!)

 

he knows several jokes and the names of the two counties at each end of the bridge at Athlone

 

 

 

between the acts
 

we play songs to give the dancers a breather - and then it's back to the dance-floor again!

remember, Oliver Cromwell banned country dancing because it was so salacious

it's ideal for all the family, even Uncle Tony

and you get to touch nearly everybody

what can possibly go wrong?

 

 

 

between the acts
 

all our instruments are handmade and tuned by professionals!

we have years of experience in this kind of thing:

you can even hear our music on the tv adaptation of Cider with Rosie

 

between the acts

we are prepared to negotiate a fee for any event
- we expect to charge £500 for an evening's dancing

and that includes everything (including PA, good manners and fashionable clothes (not shown))
