FixTheMusic makes it easy to compare quotes from the best wedding ceilidh bands North Yorkshire has to offer.

FixTheMusic is proud to present a talented range of North Yorkshire ceilidh bands who work in a number of musical styles. We have acoustic lineups who play authentic instruments like the fiddle, flute, tin whistle, accordion, hammered dulcimer and bodhrán drum, and who specialise in traditional Gaelic music such as jigs, reels, hornpipes, polkas, slip-jigs, strathspeys and waltzes from both Scotland and Ireland.

FixTheMusic is free for event planners to use – bands provide quotes directly to you.

We also have a hand-picked selection of modern ceilidh covers bands for hire who add drums, electric guitar, electric violin and vocals to the mix, and are able to perform contemporary pop covers in the ceilidh style, as well as related hybrid forms such as English folk music, folk rock, Irish rock and traditional Americana and country music.

Old-time American barn dances are proving increasingly popular with FixTheMusic’s clients, and very much suit the rise of rustic and natural wedding receptions.

Alongside barn dancing and country music, our ceilidh bands also cater to line dancing, northeastern rants and other folk-related dance forms such as the Irish stepdance and set dancing. Of course, traditional Scottish ceilidh bands are the most popular option for weddings in the UK, so we list a hand-picked selection of the finest Scottish ceilidh bands North Yorkshire can offer.

Many of our musicians graduated from local universities and music colleges in the area and have extensive gigging experience at nearby venues, as well as across the rest of the UK.

At FixTheMusic, we list top-quality ceilidh bands that have been selected by invitation only.

When you submit an enquiry, you'll receive quotes directly from available bands so you can compare them by watching their videos, reading their reviews and by asking them any questions you might have via our secure messaging system.
