The ceilidh experience was originally formed in 2002 when established musicians Norman Mackay and Carrie Thomas started gigging as an accordion/fiddle duo. They were joined the following year by Edinburgh based funk/rock drummer Billy Oke. They now perform regularly at ceilidhs all over the country. The four piece usually includes young traditional musician of the year finalist 2005 fiddler Mike Vass or Skye piano box wizard Archie Macfarlane from the renowned Archie and farquhar duo.
Quotes:
"Mackay is one of Scotlands best accordionists!" (The List) "This ceilidh crew will blow your socks off!" (Loudon Temple)
