Ceilidh: Melrose Ceilidh Band

Prepare yourself for one of the most memorable ceilidh bands to emerge in recent years…

Melrose Ceilidh Band combine decades of dance band experience with powerful harmony singing. Singing for dancing is their trademark, and with a capella specialists Melrose Quartet at their core, plus Nigel Holmes on bass (Hekety, Glorystrokes), they make a truly joyous sound.

"Stunning danceable rhythms, and an amazing choice of music that included superb vocals too. The Melrose Ceilidh Band raise the bar across the whole of the ceilidh-dancing world." Chippenham Folk Festival

Melrose Quartet are resident at Halsway Manor for the week, spending time teaching and sharing their boundless knowledge with our participants.

Please note: this event will take place in a marquee in our historic grounds and step-free access is not available.
