Why settle for taped music when you
can enjoy beautiful Irish, Scandinavian, Scottish, English or American
music at your wedding?

and sings songs to fit your needs. We have performed in medieval as
well as Civil War dress – we can tailor our performance to your period
requirements! |

Two to eight musicians (your choice of instruments) for
your wedding and/or reception

dance leader
Background music and couple dance music for general
enjoyment

Parties

We can provide lovely or lively
music for listening for your party on your choice of instruments; we
have played background music for holiday parties and fundraisers.
Or, we can get your group moving
together and having fun in a new way – by learning some easy dances that
everyone can do! The live music really gets your feet stomping.
We have played for church groups, conferences, Civil War re-enactment
gatherings, singles groups, home school groups, a Bat Mitzva party, and
dancing seniors at a retirement home. We create a fun way to get people
mingling at a group gathering.
