The Wild Cigarillos can be summed up in two words - versatility and flexibility.

This wonderful four-piece band can provide a full evening of up-tempo ceilidh dances, mixing all the popular dances, like Strip the Willow, with a few, less well-known, but easily taught ones.

With two expert "callers" in the band, no-one need feel left out by not knowing the steps. They even have a few dances from overseas to add variety!

Alternatively, they can provide a dynamic mix of ceilidh music and pop, rock, and jazz - including fast and slow numbers.

They can adjust the balance to fit the mood of the crowd on the night. This can sometimes be difficult for an organiser to predict, but you can rely on The Wild Cigarillos to tune in to guests and keep people happy.

This great mixture of music entertains people of all ages and makes them an ideal choice for your wedding or function in Scotland.

For the ceilidh music, they play accordion, fiddle/keyboards, bass and drums. For the pop covers, they switch to keyboards, guitars, saxophone, and harmonica, in various combinations.
