The Devon Ceilidh Band
This Devon based barn dance & ceilidh band consists of 4 musicians and a caller and they play an upbeat foot-stomping mix of Scottish, Irish, Celtic, & English dance music.
They specialise in playing for weddings, parties, anniversaries, and public and private celebrations, throughout the South West.
They Combine Highland, Border and electric bagpipes, melodeon, violin, flute, whistle, guitar, bass & drum (not all at the same time!) in different combinations to produce a genuinely unique and lively ceilidh program with the accent being on having fun!
The evening will include foot-stomping jigs and reels, haunting slow airs, driving dance tunes and a rousing finale with highland bagpipes, violin, drum, bass & guitar – keep your feet still if you can!
They can provide you with use of their radio microphone for your speeches and announcements and they bring a top of the range Bose professional sound system to extend your entertainment before and after the ceilidh, with your own playlist.
They also offer a full disco service with professional lighting.
The band's Highland bagpiper can also play Scottish or Irish tunes, solo and in full Highland dress as part of the day’s celebrations, if needed.

She was fantastic. Very talented, and very professional. She played a wide range of music ( we were trying to cater for a wide range of taste with guest ages from 18 to 86) and she delighted everyone. The sound level could be varied to fit the room and the level of conversational noise. For the second hour, we gathered around her with others sat outside on the staircase, listening and chatting and it was simply enchanting- a real peak experience in the evening. She also comes across as a lovely person- our family party was in our home and it felt very comfortable to have her here. I'd have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone, and we would gladly choose her again if we had another event. Big thank you again from us all.
