scallywag
barn dance and ceilidh in somerset - Weddings, birthdays, community dances, social dances, charity fund raisers and partys.
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 or French origin
mixed with Reggae, Rock and Jazz (nice) creating very 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.
