The Hullabaloo English Barn Dance Band

Hullabaloo is an English ceilidh band providing music for parties, weddings and community events in which everyone can be involved and have fun. They use a wide repertoire of English music and dances and, for variety, some jigs, reels and hornpipes from elsewhere too. Usually in the course of an evening event they’ll lead a variety of different dances, which are all easy to learn, interspersed with some music to listen to – but they can also provide music for events where there’s no dancing.

Hullabaloo is made up of experienced professional musicians and operates in a 3-piece or 4-piece set-up, usually including fiddle and guitar along with bass, flute, whistle, or accordion, and one of the musicians always acts as a caller to give the dancers straightforward instructions. At a Hullabaloo ceilidh, everyone can join in, even if they’ve had no experience of ceilidh dancing. The band is fully covered by PLI insurance and its equipment is all PAT tested.

Testimonials

WeddingHaving just returned from my honeymoon, I wanted to thank you so much for the fantastic performance by the band - you chaps were marvellous and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves (I hope you could tell)! It was a shame I didn't have more of a chance to dance, but it was important that I spoke to everyone and therefore missed out on the dance floor a bit.
Birthday & Family gatheringDear Derek I just wanted to drop you a line and say how delighted we were with your bands performance at Lesley’s 70th Birthday Party. We've had lots of feedback confirming ours and even a request for a CD. You looked after the dancers and helped them through their moves really well and I was thrilled with the level of audience participation. Lesley had a terrific time and was really grateful to you all. Thank you very much. Jennifer
