From television appearances on ITV Loose Women, This Morning and STV Riverside Show to festivals such as Scotland’s largest music festival TRNSMT, the Borland Ceilidh Band, from Kilmarnock and Irvine, are one of Scotland’s music and cultural gems.
The Borland Ceilidh Band formed with the sole purpose of being an all inclusive ceilidh band with energetic traditional music. With a dance instructor on the dance floor before every dance, everyone can enjoy a ceilidh, no matter how many dances they know. The band pick the dances, and tempo, to suit the dancers so that the ceilidh remains inclusive and fun for all.
The band members have such varied musical experiences from African gospel to punk, psychobilly and blues, that our traditional arrangements, whilst rooted deeply to the Scottish idiom, spread across all walks of life. This is the full Scottish experience, no gimmicks, no cringe – this is Ayrshire culture at it’s finest.
