Ceilidhs and Barndances


Called dances get the crowd on their feet


Catgut and Steel (and their other incarnations) can run your barndance or ceilidh for you. Mike is an expert dance caller, getting your party on its collective feet with a range of folk and colonial dances (sometimes called bush- or barn-dances) that are easy and fun to do - with no experience necessary other than knowing your left from your right. Dances include: Circassian Circle, Virginia Reel, Troika, Gay Gordons, Canadian Barndance, Sir Roger de Coverly, Dashing White Sergeant and many more, as well as the traditional waltzes and foxtrots etc. Called dances are interspersed with their usual material so there is always something for everyone in the mix.
