The McStocker Ceilidh Band is based
in Co. Antrim, Mid-Ulster Northern Ireland and is primarily comprised of family
members. The band has over 25 years experience playing at Irish and Scottish
ceilidhs, weddings, church functions, school formals, private parties, barn
dances, corporate functions and other social events. They play a range of
Irish and Scottish ceilidh dances with waltzing and jiving in between the
ceilidh dances to add a bit of variety if needed.
The legendary Oliver J
"OJ" O'Neill, from Co. Tyrone, provides versatile guitar playing and
vocals for a good mix of old tyme waltzs, country and even some rock 'n' roll
music if requested.
John Oliver "JO" Duffin
provides further variety in the band with tunes on the low whistle and uilleann
pipes. John has many years experience with different bands like the Crazy
Folkers and can play a wide variety of tunes from many different genres,
blending in well with the dance music and singing.
The
Music
Ceilidhs (or ceilis) have been
growing in popularity at weddings in particular, as the dances involve everyone
- from the young to the not so young.
The instruments in the band include
the midi accordion, fiddle, low whistle, guitar and drums. There is always a
singer to provide a bit of variation from the ceilidh dance music if required.
No experience of ceilidh dancing is
necessary as all the dances are called out and explained before the dance
begins, and all the way through until you are exhausted - and happy!
