Ceilidhs are cool…
Well, of course we’ve known this for a long time, but the media are catching up! There’s been an article in The Guardian about how the people of Gen Z are finding out that ceilidhs can be “real-time fun”….This isn’t news to us, as in recent years we’ve been seeing a lot of younger people at our ceilidhs, mixing with everyone else and dancing around with huge smiles on their faces. Our local public Ruff (celebrating their 50th season…well done!) have been selling out their tickets for the last couple of years, attracting lots of new young dancers in the process. We see every week how much enjoyment people are getting from dancing – it’s one of the perks of playing for them as we’ve said often!
We’re not usually given to blowing our own trumpets (we have a flute for blowing) but we recently had this lovely review from a great evening at Jenny and Jamie’s wedding which we thought we’d share:
"This is sincerely a fantastic group of musicians. The ceilidh was an absolute hit with our guests, and the music was so good, so joyful, and provided the exact energy we wanted for the evening. They had guests who had never met before laughing together as partners, and the groom, who is genuinely afraid of dancing, danced every single dance - more than the bride! They were absolute pros at keeping the calling gender neutral as requested, and super inclusive and encouraging of our guest who was using a special dance wheelchair.
We appreciated that they seemed to do two dances in a row, and then a little break before starting again, so people could dip in and out and get a drink etc, without feeling too stuck/overcommitted. As a result, it kept people happily on the floor all night!
This band is the best decision you could make for your wedding, and incredible value for how brilliant they are! Book them!"
Well, it’s good to know we’re doing something right! It’ll go on our Thanks page as well…
