Ceilidh band

Edinburgh

Public liability insurance of £10 million

Whisky Kiss will truly get the ceilidh started for you! Our debut single, Jocks Revenge, topped iTunes charts from Europe to South America, and we were the first band booked for Edinburgh's Hogmanay 2020. We've appeared at blue chip events all over the world on a repeat basis (the very best form of testimonial!) including 4yrs Edinburgh's Hogmanay, 8yrs New York Tartan Week, 10yrs Shanghai St Andrews Ball & 4yrs at T in the Park. Our speciality is bringing a ceilidh to life for a room full of first timers, helping them learn the dances & to experience the joy and mild chaos and sheer sociable exuberance of a ceilidh!! We provide a DJ at no extra cost to provide a mix of ceilidh & DJ/covers for your event - We'd love to be your band, dance caller & DJ

AMAZING - they had all our Australian & American friends dancing the night away (none of whom had done a Caleidh before). Iain was fantastic to deal with & the whole group (including the dancers) were a hit with our guests. Would have no hesitation in booking them again.

Hi! We wanted to say a huge Thank You for making our wedding party such a great success! We’ve had so many comments with the most widely used words being “the best wedding I have ever been to” and “joyous”! We echo that and hope our paths cross again in the future. With very best wishes, Angela & Robin xx (view original link here -https://www.facebook.com/whiskykiss/inbox/?mailbox_id=119642618071059&selected_item_id=1395267529 )

Thanks Whisky Kiss for a brilliant night last night at our Silver Wedding. Everyone had a great time and thought the band was brilliant. We had guests over from Canada and Germany, as well as all over Scotland, and all ages, from the youngest to the oldest members of the family, and we had the best time - a superb night! Thanks for making our celebrations so amazing Eileen and David
