Annasach Ceilidh Band

Ceilidh up to three hours long finishing by midnight.

Hello and thank you for your enquiry. Annasach Ceilidh Band would be available and delighted to play for your ceilidh. Our standard fee for a ceilidh up to three hours long and finishing by midnight includes – • Three piece band of fiddle, piano and bass. • A dedicated, experienced dance “caller”. • Fully PAT (Portable Appliance Testing) tested PA system and lighting. • Public Liability Insurance. • All travel expenses to your venue. Our typical evening would be playing from 9pm until midnight, and we would require an hour before the start time to set-up. We normally take up to a 30 minute break (although not if playing for 2 hours or less) in the middle of the evening, for example timed with the buffet, although all timings are flexible and we can cater for your individual requirements. Annasach has been playing for ceilidhs, parties, birthdays, folk festivals and weddings since 1990 throughout Scotland, the UK and most recently Germany, France, Portugal and Switzerland. We have a solid reputation, providing an energetic vibrant sound to entertain your guests. We have a dedicated dance caller, Tricia (who is probably the most important member of the band!), who has years of experience and is guaranteed to calm any nerves and make sure that everyone enjoys themselves. If you would like to come and see Annasach play live then we regularly play for public ceilidhs and we would be happy to provide you with a pair of complimentary tickets! With Annasach you are dealing with the musicians directly and we know how important the music is to your evening for generating the perfect atmosphere. We hope that this information is useful however please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further queries or if there is any way we can make this quote more personal to you.

Recent review: "The Tartan Trio played at our wedding in August 2018 and were absolutely exceptional. I had so many people say to me on the night and afterwards how brilliant they were. We requested to start with everyone together, rather than a traditional first dance, and they made it work perfectly. The caller was fantastic and so engaged with the audience - even getting off stage to demonstrate. It was 32 degrees during the day but people still wanted to keep dancing - at other ceilidhs I've been to guests have given up and not danced much. We provided a playlist for after and they put it together so everything flowed nicely and honestly we just had the best time! I highly highly recommend them (and have literally been telling newly engaged strangers to look them up!) Note: not the individuals in the photo and their email communication could be better. But the end result is worth it!"

Recent review: Thank you so much for being able to accommodate us on the wedding of my son! What with atrocious weather causing extensive flooding that weekend and having to postpone the wedding from the Saturday night until the Sunday, we were more than grateful that the band was still willing and able to perform on the Sunday. Great music and excellent calling made the evening, with all participants thoroughly enjoying themselves - sometimes with a little over enthusiasm! I highly recommend this band to any future clients booking. The band were more than helpful - especially Jennie with all my questions and the band on the day were superb. All good wishes, Phyllis Steele
