"Siansa"
can provide Traditional Music suited to all occasions, from the intimate
atmosphere of a club or concert stage, to larger venues such as national
folk festivals. The band also specialise in concert performances,
corporate functions and other special occasions; adapting their
repertoire to suit the different requirements of each venue. They
especially enjoy providing dance music for ceilidhs / dances, and have
earned themselves a deserved reputation for playing exciting music in a
dance environment. The band can also provide experienced
"callers" for those not so well acquainted with traditional
dancing. Be
warned: you will have fun!
The members of "Siansa"
are also experienced in running workshops, and giving talks on their
various instruments. They are also happy to give practical
demonstrations on the techniques and ornamentation employed to play
Traditional Irish Music.
Reporting on The Return to Camden
Town Festival
"If not the highlight of
the festival, then certainly one of them was the eagerly anticipated
midweek concert featuring Sean Keane and Niamh Parsons. The London Irish
Centre was absolutely packed to capacity....... more than one audience
member mentioned that the support band Siansa was worth the ticket price
alone."
