Ceilidh Band & CallerMusic Genre: Ceilidh trio  (additional disco element available)

When headlining the T in the Park Ceilidh Tent, and at Edinburgh’s Hogmanay 2009 A Whisky Kiss were described as “Scottish Music for the 21st Century”.   The band has two separate line-ups that allow us to provide perfect entertainment for a wide variety of events and occasions, at different price points too. They specialise in bringing ceilidhs to an international audience. If most of your guests are non-Scots, or if they have never ceilidh-danced (or if they are Scots who are likely to have forgotten all of the steps learned in their schooldays!) then we are the perfect band & caller for the occasion.

Davie the Box!Music Genre: Ceilidh Band

This band are one of the most popular bands on the ceilidh scene and have built their reputation over the last few years through playing at many festivals and functions both in Scotland and overseas. They are a highly talented, up-tempo ceilidh band. 

Twice World Ceilidh Band Champions. They Play for all functions including large corporate events and weddings, most notably the weddings of Supermodel, Kirsty Hume and Four Weddings and a Funeral star, John Hannah.

 They play mainly for ceilidhs although they do play for concerts, with different arrangements of
 material more suited to a concert setting. The band’s accordion player,  is also the band’s caller (That is – the guy who does all the
  talking, insults guests indiscriminately and teaches the dances). He can talk people through all the dances so that nobody attending
  any of their ceilidhs will feel left out. His humorous, tongue-in-cheek approach to this is an integral ingredient of the Last Tram
  experience.
