Why Our Ceilidhs Sound So Powerful – The Innovation Behind the Music

We Are Innovators

At KJ Ceilidhs, we’re not just another folk band—we’re innovators. Our founder, Kathryn Johnstone, holds a degree in Business Management and Innovation, and that ethos runs through everything we do.

Here’s what makes our sound stand out:

A unique mic setup. We give the accordion’s bass end its own channel and blend it with the stomp box to create a punchy, rhythmic drive you can feel.

Top-tier equipment. We use high-end PA systems and carefully tuned acoustics to deliver rich, balanced sound—ideal for both intimate venues and large halls.

Professional lighting. Every booking includes party lights to elevate the atmosphere and make your event feel extra special.

Flexible lineups. Need bagpipes for that Scottish wow-factor? A traditional duet for a refined touch? Or a full band with a DJ to keep the night going? We’ll tailor the music to suit your vision.

When clients book KJ Ceilidhs, they’re not just booking a band—they’re investing in a carefully crafted musical experience where tradition meets innovation.
