The Glasgow Ceilidh Band are a truly electric four-piece ceilidh band with fiddle, bass, electric guitar and drums (electric too), adding an exciting, modern twist to traditional Ceilidh music.

Our dances are quite easy and you’ll have so much fun, even wee old Auntie Maureen, or grumpy Sam from finance, might be persuaded to get up and have a go (in fact they might even dance together!).
We bring the house down in all venues – from castles to canvases, from hotels to huts – in fact any event or place that wants to enjoy an evening of merriment with exciting music.
A DJ is always included to play your favourite song for the first dance and later in the evening if required.
We like to put the ‘ding’ in ‘wedding’, and the ‘corr!’ in corporate’, so give us a call to make sure your evening will genuinely rock! (NB: Our music is much better than our puns!)

"The Glasgow Ceilidh Band played at our wedding and we couldn’t be happier that we booked them! We had a mixed bag of Scottish, English and Japanese guests, many who had never even heard of a ceilidh before, but they all got stuck right in thanks to the great music and Simon’s patience and instruction as the ceilidh caller. The rock element was an amazing touch and had all the guests talking! A good few of our English friends have said they’ll only be attending Scottish weddings from now on, so I don’t think you can get a more shining review than that!"
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"The Glasgow Ceilidh Band were fantastic and I can not recommend them enough. We hired the full band for the evening of our wedding and they provided live music for the Ceilidh and the DJ afterwards. The majority of guests had never done a Ceilidh before and the caller was patient and excellent at explaining the steps. Their cross between light rock and traditional music was exactly what we wanted to make a memorable evening (which all our guests were talking about after the event). As well as being fantastic on the night they have also been great at quickly replying to emails and being prompt at providing required information; taking away stress from what is typically a stressful time. Thank Glasgow Ceilidh Band for your talent and performance."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"The Glasgow Ceilidh Band were amazing at my wedding. All my guests loved it even though most of them had never heard of ceilidh before let alone danced it. Simon was so helpful from the get go to the day of the wedding even though she unfortunately couldn’t be there. Overall, a great experience and highly recommend."
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"My wife and I booked The Glasgow Ceilidh Band for our wedding and were thrilled with what we got. I was really impressed with how tight the band are and Mary's playing and calling on fiddle was outstanding. They provide a fresh dynamic sound without the need for an accordionist. Great value for money, accommodating and put on a fantastic night. Not to be missed. Cheers, from Stuart & Ellen."
