Back again after their great reception last Easter
THE RAREBITS CEILIDH BAND |
The History The Rarebits were formed originally as a duo in the then very active Chepstow Folk Club in the late 70's. In the early days there were many changes in the line up sometimes the band would outnumber the audience. The nucleus of the band have been together from that time. Keith with the band for only eight years is a relative newcomer while Gerry has only been playing with us for three years so we haven't got to know him yet !

The People The band including caller Eric usually
go out as a five piece, sometimes six, the programme includes song spots
and instrumentals to complement the dancing. The caller is an integral
part of the band as he contributes to the music as and when possible.

The Performance Our dance material is aimed at the less experienced dancer, we reckon that a complete novice can start the evening with us, enjoy every dance in the programme without feeling bewildered and acquire a fair repertoire of skills in the course of that evening.
