Husband and wife team of Joanie and Michael Garvin
have been playing music together for years and their immaculate, sinuous and soulful music
has danced tens of thousands of feet and stunned delighted concert goers all over Scotland and overseas.
Michael, originally from the Isle of Barra
in the outer Hebrides, has been playing the accordion since his school days but is one of those musicians who never stop learning, who never feel they know it all, so now he is regarded by many to be one of the best accordionists in Scotland.
Joanie has been a brilliant fiddler from an very early age, being one of the founding members of the Celtic supergroup Capercaillie before meeting Michael.
Michael and Joanie's music expresses the soul
of the wild West Highlands and Coast, playing that's fluid and soulful, as synchronised as birds in flight and matching the mood of their audience whether for listening and dancing but when you hear the tempo goes up you'll be hard pressed to keep your feet still!

Testimonials
'We just wanted to thank you for the wonderful entertainment at our wedding at the Fairmont. We really enjoyed the music and the atmosphere was great - everybody was talking about what a fantastic ceilidh it was. You managed to get everyone up and keep the dancing going, and the atmosphere really added to our special day. In the run up to the wedding you have been so helpful and happy to discuss what we were looking for, which has made the organisation feel so effortless! Thanks once again, and I'll certainly be recommending you to friends looking for a ceilidh band in the future!'
