Sleeping Moggy Ceilidh Band
We provide ceilidhs and barn dances mainly in Northampton, Milton Keynes and the surrounding towns and villages – but we sometimes travel further afield!
We play mainly traditional English, Irish and Scottish music, including a selection of Playford’s 17th & 18th century dance tunes, some earlier tunes, tunes we’ve written, and whatever else has made us want to learn them.
Whether you’re planning a dance for a fundraiser, a family celebration, a club social, a school or business event, or a community celebration, we can offer a dance that’s fun for everyone.
It doesn’t matter if you’re new to barn dances or a seasoned dancer – our experienced caller explains the dances and helps everyone to join in.
Why have a barn dance?
“to help get people mixing with each other”
“the different ages enjoyed themselves together”
“it’s much better than just standing or sitting round talking”
“it’s more fun than a disco”
“we enjoyed having a good dance and still being able to hear ourselves talk to each other”
