About Banter: Ceilidh

Banter are back in 2026 to soundtrack another lively ceilidh in the Ballroom!

This event is suitable for folk fans of all ages, with no experience needed to join in this fun and energetic dance!

Described as “The future of Folk”, Banter take English traditional music to the next level with their iconic interpretations of classic songs and dance tunes.  

Following in the creative footsteps of the likes of Steeleye Span and La Bottine Souriante, Nina Zella, Simon Care and Tim Walker have lovingly reinvented what defines English Folk. 

This year the trio have added the multi-instrumentalist skills of Mark Jolley (TradArrr, Tickled Pink) to their line-up and have been receiving rave reviews from around the globe for both their live shows and particularly for their fourth album HEROES.  

They are currently touring material from their brand-new studio album “Heroes”, alongside some of their old favourites.
