NORTH STAR CEILIDH BAND The
Ceilidh Band is a four or three piece outfit comprising of andrew
on electric fiddle and calling, steve on guitar, electric bagpipes and
vocals, marc on drums and also bass guitar and vocals. SONGS
AND WORLD MUSIC Note
that if there are a few songs then its best to have the bass guitarist
along as 4 musicians will take the performance towards more industrial
sounds and expectations. We
do rock and roll and songs from the 50’s to the 90’s, Blues songs, Scottish
and Irish folk songs, can also supply live Latin American background music
on guitar from Steve [and no doubt we could bring Indian Sitar and such
instruments along as well if needed and negotiated.] Here’s
a short list of some of the things we do AND we can always learn one or
two new songs for a function IF they normally fall within the male tenor
vocal range. Here
is a sample of some of the songs we have looked at – it’s by no means
exhaustive or definitive. Come
