THE BAND

It's important to have a band that is friendly, approachable and always smiling......we like to think we meet this criteria!

 

Having played music together for well over fifteen years, we work well as a team and love what we do.  Our music and dances are suitable for all ages and is played at an appropriate volume to allow people to chat and socialise.

 

This Northern Ireland based Ceilidh Band is made up of founder members piano accordionist Amanda Hopper (nee Robinson) and button accordionist Kenny Mitchell, shortly followed by our drummer Trevor.

 

Ruth our dance caller holds the events together, inviting people onto the dance floor, explaining the dance steps and most importantly having fun.  She is experienced, friendly and encouraging, putting all your guests at ease and is also great with international guests.  When not on the dance floor calling dances, Ruth can be found on the stage behind the piano!

 

Have you noticed yet that none of us are called Alastair Scott?  That's another story! Come up and ask us how we got our name and who the mysterious Alastair Scott is.
