Bass Rock Ceilidh Band Full Description
Booking the BRCB and disco means you get a full 4 piece ‘rock-ceilidh’ band comprising electric fiddle, electric guitar, bass and drums. We are all highly experienced and skilled musicians. We play toe-tapping high energy ceilidh tunes blended with snippets and riffs from many modern songs. Your guests will be in safe hands, even if complete ceilidh novices. As an experienced ceilidh dance caller I will guide them step by step through the most popular dances, and a few more unusual dances too. This ensures that everyone will be able to fully participate in your big day. We bring our own pat-tested sound and light equipment and also have PLI.

Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Simon Harris
Hello and Congratulations! I am delighted to present the Bass Rock Ceilidh Band. We have more years combined experience than we care to admit and, although have played across the UK, are based in Glasgow and the central belt. We are proud of our many glowing reviews - they all loved our unique 'rock-ceilidh' sound as well as the fun atmosphere we created at their weddings. We look forward to hearing from you to discuss how we can make your big day joyous too. Speak soon! Simon, BRCB

Best Ceilidh band

We booked Bass Rock Ceilidh Band for our wedding and we couldn't have been happier! From the start, the communication with Simon was great! Half of our wedding guests were German and completely new to Ceilidh and the band was really patient with teaching them the different dances, everyone had so much fun and in the end our German friends were completely in love with Ceilidh. And everyone loved the short bits of Rock songs in between as well. Afterwards there was a DJ set with a playlist we put together, which was a lot of fun as well :) All in all, a huge thanks to Bass Rock Ceilidh Band for an unforgettable night!

You were fantastic at getting everyone going

Just a quick note to say a huge thank you to you both. I was away last week otherwise would have sent a message earlier.  It was a great evening and you were fantastic at getting everyone going. I hope you have managed to enjoy the sunshine and thank you so much again!  2-piece Ceilidh band Sports Club Ball Grange Hockey Club Edinburgh

would definitely recommend Bass Rock Ceilidh Band

We just wanted to say thank you for last Friday at our wedding. Everybody had a great time and said the Ceilidh was so much fun. Especially our guests from Guernsey who had never experienced it before. It was great to see everyone enjoying themselves. We would definitely recommend Bass Rock Ceilidh Band to anybody looking for a Ceilidh band.  Wedding Reception Inglewood House Hotel, Alloa

Just what we wanted

BRCB played at our wedding reception in August and they were fantastic. Due to covid we had a lot of chopping and changing of dates, the band were quick to respond to emails and luckily for us were able to play on our final date. Our guests really enjoyed the entertainment and the dance floor was nice and busy, just what we wanted. We were sorry to not get more time to enjoy the dancing ourselves but highly recommend them and hope to arrange another party in future where we can book them again.

great job at getting people up on the dance floor

I just wanted to drop you a note to say a massive thank you for last Saturday. You and the band were amazing and so many people said how much they loved the mix between ceilidh and rock. You did such a great job at getting people up on the dance floor even though it took a bit of encouragement at points, everyone had such good fun and I think the highlight of our day was Loch Lomond at the end! Also thank you for putting up with our very drunk friends! Wedding Reception Dunglass Estate
