Shoestring Ceilidh Band
ShoeString
are a six piece ceilidh and covers band -comprising
of Ian on keyboards, Gillian on fiddle vocals and percussion, Craig
on drums/percussion, Laurie rhythm guitar and vocals, and Clark
and Ron, alternating between lead guitar /bass guitar and vocals.
Formed in 2005, some members of the band have been together, in
other guises for more than ten years, leading Ceilidhs, performing
at parties, weddings, Hogmanay events, and travelling extensively in
Europe and as far away as
Taiwan, playing for the Ballochleam
Highland Dancers.
Ron and Clark, call
the Ceilidh dances when required and can teach excellent new set
dances and reels to your guests, within minutes, at your wedding or
party, or for a really special event, we can be accompanied by ex 3
times senior Scottish Highland dancing champion, teacher and
professional caller Gillian, who will come along, and call for your
Ceilidh. All
members of the band have many years experience in the music world,
and the band can switch between Folk music, Ceilidh and Pop with
ease. Pop covers range from Beatles to Greenday, Elvis to Snow
Patrol. If you have a particular request for your wedding or party,
let us know, and we will ask them to learn it, if it is not already
in our song list.
The band can perform
as a ceilidh and covers band, ceilidh only band, a covers only band
, providing tasteful background music, or as live music to support
the Ballochleam Highland Dancers. The bands great strength is in the
musical diversity. When switching from ceilidh to pop music, you
will scarcely believe the same band is still on stage.
Recently the band have
performed at weddings in Stirling and
Edinburgh
Castles, and at many top
hotels throughout Central Scotland.
Powerful PA, full
stage lighting and caller included in this fantastic act.
