Does anyone know any good wedding bands in Galway, some one who plays a bit of traditional music,waltzs....celtic rock type music i suppose. I saw West Awake mentioned on one of the hotels list of wedding suppliers, has anyone heard them play at a wedding??

some of the better bands in the area would be tightrope, pyramid, kif, fraggle rock and busy fingers.
Don't have numbers for them but if you google them you'll be able to get contact info and see set lists.
Also might be worth ringing events manager in the Quays bar off shop street, they would often have bands playing that style of music and i'm sure would point you in right direction.
good luck

We're having Lewd Tunes - they're travelling to Laois for our wedding.
My two SILs had Tightrope and Pyramid at their respective weddings. Great bands!

Hi Bobbie,
We have just booked the Weightless Astronauts for our wedding next year - went to see them play last weekend - were fantastic - really talented guys. Well able to cater to all ages. Think they play a good bit in the Quay in Galway if you wanted to see them.
Another great one is Sean Slattery - we originally were trying to get him but the date was gone & he put us in touch with Weightless Astronauts
PM me if you want any contact details. Best of Luck

Hi, sorry to hijack your question Bobbie but does anyone know anything about a Galway band called Raindance? I'm thinking of booking them on a friend's recommendation...
Thanks.

I am getting married in Belfast and have just been quoted 2400 euro for one wedding band and 1400 sterling for another. What is considered the going rate for wedding bands? I have no clue!

I have the weightless astronauts booked as well.
Went to see them at a wedding and thought they were great.
I think they play at The Quays most Sundays...
