What to expect

We will arrive one hour before entertainment starting time to set up and sound check as soon as we can get access to the room. Our equipment includes 2 x 1000W speakers, monitors (including in-ears), spot lights and other disco lights, a mixing desk and various amps. Drums are electronic which means we can play at any volume - quiet or loud. For the first dance, we can either play it through our disco system or live as a ceilidh dance. We give full instructions for all our easy dances using fun-filled banter, starting off with a few moderately paced dances and then either slowing down the dance type or speeding up depending on how the dancers are coping. Most people prefer ceilidh until buffet/half time, and then disco, however we are very flexible and can change on the night itself, depending on expectations. We require an hour to dismantle everything at the end of the evening.

Wedding

There is no way I can even start to recommend Bass Rock Ceilidh Band. Their communication on the lead up to our day was amazing.. so supportive! On the day itself.. Just WOW. Not only did the guests have so many compliments but the staff at the reception said it was the best band they have heard. They got everyone up dancing and they were beyond amazing. Thank you so much for helping make our day so special.

Wedding

I was unsure about having ceilidh at the wedding and thought disco would be more popular - but Bass Rock Ceilidh were so amazing, everyone had loads of fun and loved every minute of it!! Mary was so patient and explained the moves to us inexperienced dancers, she really was fab. Could not recommend a better group and loved the rock touches! Such a professional group and really made it an incredible day.

Wedding

If you love a Ceilidh, with a modern twist, professional and talented musicians, outstanding pre wedding communication and piece of mind about who's providing music on your big day then you MUST hire these guys. I'm being totally honest when I say that they are under charging for their service. Absolutely incredible. Thank you for making our day exactly as we'd imagined. Our guests adored you, and so did we.

Birthday Party

Bass Rock did a two piece ceilidh for my husband's 40th and they were just excellent. It was a daytime party with a small crowd in a village hall, and everyone loved their music, their easy approach to getting us dancing and how engaging they were with us. Really fantastic band, so pleased we booked them!
