Latest reviews of our Wedding Ceilidh Bands in Newcastle upon Tyne

Drop Spindle Ceilidh Band
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"You guys were absolutely fantastic, all three had so much charisma and really got the party going. Most of our party were first time Ceilidh dancers, but Michael’s calling was clear and fun, he really set everyone at ease. Getting a bunch of grumpy Yorkshire men ceilidhing with so much enthusiasm was really quite an achievement. It was the highlight of the day for many guests, thank you so much! "
