The home of a great night!!!  'JIGS 'N' REELS' is an experienced agency specialising in arranging barn dance and ceilidh bands throughout the UK for all sorts of occasions. Based in the West Midlands, the agency was set up by Chris Mulvey who has been 'calling' for ceilidhs and barn dances since 1980.
All the bands we represent are 'live' bands which include a 'caller' who acts as MC for the whole event (see what the caller does here). If you want a great band for a fantastic ceilidh or barn dance, search our database below or give us call on (01905) 424411 or use our enquiry form.      (NEW - VIDEOS for Bands marked * )
