THE BAND

Ceilidh Band & Barn Dance Band Aderyn Prin are North Wales’s favourite choice for a Ceilidh, Barn Dance, Twmpath Dawns, Country Dance or Hoedown

 Nial on fiddle or mandolin, with Annie on piano accordion lead the band, ably supported by the tight and driving rhythm section of Pete on guitar/vocals and Jerome on 5 string bass.

WE CAN TRANSFORM A SPECIAL EVENT - wedding, anniversary or birthday party - into an evening to remember. And unlike a disco, you will find a ceildh appeals across the generations - we regularly fill the dancefloor with everyone from tots to grannies!

DON'T WORRY THAT YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW THE DANCES - we work with the best and most experienced callers in the area. Our caller will explain and take you through each dance step by step , and then, if needed will also call as the dance progresses. And with our repertoire including anything and everything from stately waltzes to the meltdown frenzy of Strip the Willow, it’s huge fun and it doesn’t matter if you’ve never danced a step before.

WE BRING OUR OWN SOUND SYSTEM AND CALLER - and will, of course, work flexibly to your requirements on the night. And, in answer to a common enquiry, if required a sizeable part of our repertoire is Welsh, and we work with several callers who are delighted to get the opportunity to call an entire Twmpath in Welsh...we are equally at home conducting dances in either language or bilingually throughout the evening.

IF YOU'VE NEVER ORGANISED A CEILIDH OR BARN DANCE BEFORE, OR WOULD LIKE YOUR BEXT ONE TO BE EVEN MORE SUCCESFUL - DO HAVE A LOOK AT OUR FAQ PAGE HERE

We draw mainly on the vast repertoire of traditional dance music of the British Isles - though we are not deaf to a good tune and are prepared to make exceptions! And of course not forgetting both traditional and contemporary songs from Pete. Sometimes we are booked purely for listening, and we have enough quieter and more unusual tunes and songs to provide an evening's entertainment in this way too, if that is something that interests you.

BASED NEAR CAERNARFON, WE'VE BEEN PLAYING REGULARLY TO APPRECIATIVE AUDIENCES THROUGHOUT NORTH WALES FOR 12 YEARS.
