'Just SO danceable' (Frank,
2015)
The Black Box Band plays lively
English dance music for ceilidhs, barn dances &
village hops. We play at public events such as
festivals, regular ceilidhs, and graduation ceremonies as well for private
celebrations such as weddings, birthdays,
anniversaries and leaving parties. The regular band
line-up is
- Pete - melodeon
- Chris - fiddle
- Alice - piano
- Sue - dance caller &
step dancer
We have a small panel of
friends who can deputise if one of the regulars is
unavailable. The band carries public liability
insurance and has its own high-quality PAT-tested PA
system.
The band is based in West
Yorkshire but is able to travel.
What do we sound like? These
video clips were all filmed 'on the fly' on a
compact camera and show the band playing in the real
world of ceilidhs and barn dances. They are unedited
except for length and show a variety of dance
rhythms, experienced and less experienced dancers,
public and private events and band line-ups.
