Second Front has been playing for English ceilidhs and barn dances across Surrey and into Hampshire, West Sussex and Berkshire since 2000. Our sound is lively, rhythmic and musical, and our caller makes the dancing good fun. We draw a lot on material from all the great English ceilidh bands, from the revival in the 70s right up to today, but also include tunes from Scottish, Irish, Canadian, French and American sources. More on all of this on our Ceilidh/Barn Dancing and Sound Samples pages.

(If you are looking for an authentic Scottish ceilidh, please see our sister band, Innistor, at www.innistor.co.uk.)

Second Front is in its element playing in the likes of village/church halls for relatively informal events such as birthday, anniversary and other parties, and for social and/or fund raising events for groups such as school PTAs, sports clubs, church groups, charity fund-raising, Morris dance sides, etc. But we are also happy to help celebrate weddings and civil partnerships.

Our working area is roughly anywhere within 45 minutes drive of Guildford / Farnham, covering the western half of Surrey, and adjacent parts of Hampshire (Hants), West Sussex and Berkshire (Berks) (more detail in FAQ).
