Booking the Band

The band is available for public or private events.  We are based in the Peak District and also play in South Yorkshire.  If you would like us to play for you please use the contact form above giving details.

Join the band

The band is open to anyone who would like to play folk music for dancing.  On alternate weeks we have slow practices where beginners can learn the tunes and we also welcome more experienced musicians.  If you are interested in joining the band please use the contact form.

The band has been arranging a series of ceilidhs which take place four or five times a year on a Sunday evening. Details of the next 'HOME-GROWN' ceilidh are in the diary section and also below.

There are two aims. One is to build up a regular group of dancers who can come regularly and learn a repertoire of dances. The other is to work with local voluntary/community groups who can invite their supporters and share in the takings from the ceilidh. The format is informal with the band and those attending bringing their own food to share at the half way point in the dance. There is sometimes a BAR, and sometimes we say "No bar tonight! Bring your own drinks."

The Ceilidhs are held at the Broomhall Centre, Broomspring Lane, Sheffield S10 2FB.
