Cornwall based ‘Splann’ is a Ceilidh and barn dance band that delves into some of the best Scottish, Irish and Cornish tunes to get your wedding, festival, corporate function or party swinging with style. Splann Cornwall ceilidh band play for ceilidhs and barn dances across Cornwall and Devon and beyond.
Line up
The core of the band is a three piece (consisting of fiddle, accordion and guitar). Which is guaranteed to get your event or celebration up and dancing with driving reels and swirling jigs.
We can also add drums and bass to the line up to create the Splann ‘Big Band’. As the name suggests, this will create a bigger rockier sound. The choice is yours, just pick the line up that suits your event or size of venue. From small village halls to stages at festivals. Lastly, our caller, Ellie, will be there to talk you through each of the dances before they start. Ensuring that whether you are seasoned ceilidh dancing expert or this is your first time at a barn dance you’ll feel confident on the night. Whether your event is in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset or Dorset, Splann will give it a real Celtic flavour.
We’re a group of experienced musicians who have been actively involved in the Cornish and south west folk scene for longer than we care to remember.
