Not sure whether to book a ceilidh band or a pop party band? You needn’t worry, as The O'Reallys can do both! A popular choice for weddings and cross-generational events, the band typically follow up their ceilidh sets with one or two sets of well-known rock and pop songs from the 1950s to the present day. Ceilidh caller included!

The band's female singer is also an experienced ceilidh caller and will guide guests through the steps of well-known ceilidh dances such as Dashing White Sergeant, Gay Gordons, Circassian Circle and Strip the Willow. These dances are ideal for parties and weddings and are a great way to break the ice and for people to get to know each other.

A band that gets me dancing has to be good! O'Reallys are totally addictive – a habit I recommend everyone getting hooked on! Diane-Louise Jordan, TV Presenter

The O'Reallys Ceilidh Band have played for The Royal Family, BP, BT and Lloyds TSB. They have also played at The Ritz Ballroom, The Savoy Hotel, The Hurlingham Club, The Dorchester Hotel, The Lanesborough, The Park Lane Hotel, The Lansdowne Club, The Natural History Museum, The Landmark Hotel, The Gherkin and many more.

The O'Reallys offer a trio line-up for smaller events, as well an acoustic folk or jazz trio for afternoon entertainment. They can also expand to a 10-piece line-up including an additional female vocalist, 3 horn players and a keys player.

It's clear the band love what they do (especially playing the ceilidh dances), and will make sure you do too!
