About this Act

Hee-Drum Ho are a modern Scots ceilidh band with personality and presence. Musically, they have been playing together for over 10 years and this can be heard in the dynamism and fluidity of their sound.

The band subscribe to the belief that ceilidh should be fun for all age groups. The instruction and 'calling' of each dance is a particular forté, with Kenny strutting through the dance-floor sporting his wireless handsfree microphone enabling him to offer, if required, one on one instruction on how best to avoid dance-floor ignominy!

The band weave classic modern pop into their reels, freshening up old formats and making the music accessible and engaging for all. They offer flexibility in their repertoire, being able to play rock/pop & disco covers as part of their performance, to whatever degree might be required.
