Ceilidh & Barn Dance Band
Covering Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, Surry, Berkshire, Sussex & the Isle of Wight.
ABOUT US

Based in and around Southampton & Portsmouth, we play a mix of traditional folk tunes and our own original compositions, including jigs, reels, hornpipes and waltzes to accompany barn dances and ceilidhs.
We are well known in the South of England and flexible enough to handle anything from a festival stage to a village hall, including outdoor venues. From private parties and wedding to corporate functions to festivals.
The Band was initially formed in 1983 by Andrew Purkiss and since then developed in to the current line-up.
