All dances are called by the band with full instructions provided for all the steps when required.  A Fiddle and piano can be added on request, and a separate Dance Caller and Disco can be arranged if required.

Hello We just wanted to say thank you so much for playing for our wedding on Saturday. You were brilliant and our guests thoroughly enjoyed it. The caller was excellent too as most of us had no idea what we were doing! Thanks again Jess Randall Wedding Peebles Hydro (Ceilidh/Disco) 2 September 2023
