Borland Ceilidh Band....Live at Dean Castle
Join us for a fun family ceilidh!
From major TV appearances including The Real Housewives of London, ITV’s Loose Women, This Morning and STV’s Riverside Show, to performing at TRNSMT — Scotland’s largest music festival, The Borland Ceilidh Band are one of Scotland’s true music and cultural gems.
Hailing from Kilmarnock and Irvine, the band have been bringing high‑energy, inclusive ceilidhs to audiences since 2011. This dynamic three‑piece features John C Grant on fiddle, Ewin Murray on guitar and vocals, and Kevin Longmuir on accordion and vocals — combining tight musicianship with infectious energy.
What truly sets the Borland Ceilidh Band apart is their all‑inclusive approach. With a dance instructor on the floor before every dance, everyone is welcome — whether it’s your first ceilidh or your fiftieth. The band carefully choose the dances and adjust the tempo to suit the crowd, ensuring the night stays fun, friendly and accessible for all.
Drawing on influences ranging from African gospel and blues to punk and psychobilly, their sound is firmly rooted in the Scottish tradition while feeling fresh, exciting and full of life.
No gimmicks. No cringe. Just authentic, joyful Scottish music at its very best.
