scallywag are an experienced, energetic ceilidh / barn dance band based in Taunton, Somerset. We came together more than ten years ago from some of the busiest and most popular folk dance bands in Somerset to develop our unique blend of traditional and contemporary folk music. Our influences are drawn from traditional folk music of Irish, English and French origin mixed with Reggae, Rock and Jazz (nice) creating infectious dance styles designed to appeal to all tastes.
The usual line up of the band is four musicians drawn from fiddle, whistles, mandolin/mandola, guitar/octave-mandolin and bass guitar. This instrumental versatility enables the band to switch from a traditional to a contemporary line-up with ease. We carry our own caller which will be included in the price you are quoted.
