Booking Celtic Bands

Traditional Celtic music refers to the folk music of Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. If you are listening to Celtic bands, you're hearing instruments like the harp, the fiddle, the mandolin, the flute, bagpipes, the banjo, and of course the human voice! Some lesser known instruments featured in celtic band music are the bodhran (a Celtic drum), the Irish bouzouki (similar to a large mandolin), and the tin whistle. Characterized by lively, intertwining melodies, a Celtic band can be a great addition to many different types of events. Your wedding ceremony will seem like a fairytale with a Celtic wedding band serenading your guests as your walk down the isle. A Celtic singer and bagpipes will often be heard performing "Danny Boy" at a funeral or memorial service. A Celtic harp or celtic flute will create a relaxed and enchanting atmosphere at a cocktail hour, art gallery opening, or Renaissance festival. And of course a St. Patrick's Day party would not be the same without a Celtic band or Irish band performing Irish music and Irish drinking songs like "Finnigan's Wake", "The Minstrel Boy" and "The Wind That Shakes the Barley". So, set your event apart from the rest and hire a celtic band today!
