The Rocking Ceilidh Band for Weddings and Parties

Unreel Instruments
Unreel are:
 
James Barry:  Caller and Drums.  James is simply the most entertaining caller around, guaranteed to get you dancing and having a good time.

Alan Diamond:  Bass.  Drums and bass make this Ceilidh band rock.

Julian Burton:  Squeeze boxes and Saxophones.  Julian's sax playing takes Ceilidh music into new and jazzy territories.  Listen to King of the Fairies.  A set of hornpipes starts with a reggae edge, finishes more like a New Orleans marching band.  Magic!

Stephen Sibbald:  Fiddle
Ian Chisholm:  Guitars, Mandolin and Bouzouki
The band may also feature other local musicians and dancers including:
 
Penny Burton: caller and dancer  Penny

Penny called
dances in French when we played in Lille.

Tony Dunn: caller, concertina and clarinet.
