Hessle Ceilidh Band

We have been playing ceilidhs for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, social and corporate events for over 15 years, and have built an outstanding reputation for delivering high-energy entertainment that gets everyone up and dancing. Our caller talks through each dance before we play the music, so even if you have never done ceilidh dancing before, you will soon pick it up.

We have a wide range of traditional and contemporary dances that we can play, from Scottish reels and jigs to Irish folk dances and American square dances. We can tailor our set to suit your event and audience, and we can provide recorded music during breaks.

We take pride in the quality of our musicianship, and our gigs are always lively, fun and memorable. We are fully insured and have our own PA system, suitable for small to medium-sized venues. So why not book The Hessle Ceilidh Band for your next event and let us get your guests up and dancing! Call Quentin on 07877434739 to book your ceilidh today.

Hessle Ceilidh Band at Open Doors

We were very lucky to receive funding from the EFDSS to promote Ceilidh Dancing in the community we took our music to Open Doors in Hull a very special place. Open Doors is a welcoming place and helps destitute asylum seekers, refugees and migrant workers it is a safe and warm welcoming place for socialising: Over 60 to 70 people from more than 20 nationalities sit under one roof and benefit each other’s experiences and get to know each other. Open doors cook fresh food and serve nearly 50 to 60 clients weekly. Thursday morning from 10am to 3pm. Open Doors Hull (open-doors.org.uk)

The Event

The event  took place on the 2nd of June the first day of the Queen’s Jubilee during the morning session of Open Doors 10-30am to 12pm. One of the clients Sergio was very interested in the mandolin and had ago on it for whilst we were setting up.

Engagement

Live music was played as people arrived and people sat and listened whilst having their breakfast. The children were very curious at 11am the dancing started with our caller Amanda Lowe calling the dances and demonstrating / leading moves for the dancers, many of whom had never experienced a ceilidh before but who were keen and willing to participate in the dancing. Many of the youngsters and their parents engaged in the dancing throughout. When we finished playing at noon people left and the space was tidied.

Feedback From Open Doors

Cecil Jones the manager of Open Doors told me that this was the first live music that they had hosted at Open Doors in over two years and that in his view that the event had been a great success and was really appreciated by the Open Doors Community both clients and staff.. He said that although some of the people had only been watching that they had enjoyed the music and seeing the dancers. He suggested a return visit for the band later in the year.

Here is a video from the BBC which explains the work of the organisation and the situation of their clients.

Impact of Covid on venues

Covid made booking halls for public dancing in the period and after the pandemic very difficult with many places simply closing their doors to all booking enquiries or simply not re-opening. This made organising a Ceilidh in one of these spaces impossible. We tried to partner with a number of organisations and were fortunate to make use of an existing contact Quentin had with Open Doors just a short distance from the centre of Hull on Princes Avenue.

Angi Beckett Ceilidh and Barn Dance Caller

Here’s Angi Beckett our Ceilidh and Barn Dance Caller talking about her work with the Hessle Ceilidh Band in her own words:
Angi caller with The Hessle Ceilidh Band

I love calling for dancing. There is a great energy, which is reciprocal between caller and dancers, and the more fun the dancers have, the more I have, too. I adore dancing and believe it should be enjoyable; I try to make every event I call for one I’d like to be dancing at.

Although it’s very satisfying when a dance goes perfectly, it’s often far more fun when it goes a bit haywire, with people giggling as they dance.

I came to dance calling accidentally; the folk dance group in Norfolk, of which I was a member, lost 1 of its 2 callers. Feeling sorry for the remaining caller, I offered to help out occasionally. ‘Occasionally’ grew into often running the group alone. Having served my voluntary apprenticeship, I moved onto public calling, also somewhat accidentally. After seeing an article in the local paper about my starting up a new folk dance group, a caller rang me out of the blue to ask if I’d cover for him 2 days later as he was unable to make it. So with a cobbled-together programme and much trepidation, I managed to successfully run my first public barn dance.

Word got round and I soon started calling regularly with the Hessle Ceilidh Band. After a baptism of fire at a New Year’s Eve ceilidh, I’ve been delighted to continue calling at all sorts of events with this talented band and look forward to many more enjoyable dances with them.

Planning a wedding Ceilidh or barn dance at Dunedin Country House, Patrington, East Yorkshire?

The Hessle Ceilidh band is the perfect alternative to a party band or DJ at Dunedin Country House. They make for a fantastic party as it is a great way to get families and friends to mix and meet, and importantly all age groups love to get involved. The faster dances provide quite an energetic work out whilst more relaxed romantic songs provide plenty of scope for slow dances (and a bit of a breather!)

Ceilidh’s at Dunedin Country House are ideal for all social events including weddings, birthdays, anniversaries and retirement parties. They are particularly good ice breakers at weddings where people may be meeting for the first time. Ceilidh dancing can involve large or small groups of people and it is easy to pick up, experience is not required. The dances are pattern dances and may be done in lines, squares or circles. Many are progressive which means that couples change partners regularly during the dance.

The Hessle Ceilidh Band are East Yorkshires busiest professional Ceilidh band and can help you make your special occasion at Dunedin Country House a memorable and joyful occasion. For further information call Quentin on 07877434739 or email: hessleceilidhband@yahoo.co.uk
