Live music performed by a excellent band is certain to make any get together or celebration go with a bang. It’s a well known proven fact that after a few drinks even the shyest and most retiring individuals will probably be up on the dancefloor and shaking their stuff to the music. So whatever sort of celebration you’re planning, be it a birthday, wedding party, anniversary or merely an excuse to get together with close friends a live group can make a huge difference.

To ensure a terrific atmosphere and people dancing all night you really need a Ceilidh band to come and play at your party. There are of course other styles of band that you can go for but is a jazz band really likely to produce the same atmosphere? Ceilidh bands play traditional country music for folks to get up and dance to coupled with some songs, humor and storytelling included for good measure. The songs played by Ceili bands may vary based upon where you live so Irish Ceili bands can have an alternative style from Scottish Ceilidh bands but the outcome will be the same-a fantastic time for everyone. Each Ceili band will come with a caller who will identify the dances and call out directions towards the dancers on the dance floor. He can begin by giving a short introduction to the upcoming song and discuss the steps that go with it and call out directions while the song is being performed. At the beginning of the evening the steps are going to be reasonably simple but more complex and elaborate steps will be introduced as people become more comfortable with the dances. Barn dance bands and Hoedown bands are similar to Ceili bands in many ways. Like Ceili bands they come with a caller to call the dances although the music is of course in the American tradition. However there are numerous similarities between the two with both of them influenced by largely traditional music with a caller calling the steps. You may have a Ceili or even a Hoedown in almost any location you like provided that there is plenty of room for people to get up and dance and have a good time. Callers bands and wedding ceilidh bands will supply their PA system and caller so all you need to do is choose a suitable location and fill it with your family and friends and have an enjoyable experience.
