Reviews of Folk Bands available in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté

5/5 from 304 reviews
Photo of The DooLallys The DooLallys "I first witnessed The DooLallys years ago at a kind of impromptu kitchen session. I think deeply soulful is the best way to describe their mix of pipes, strings, and song - seamless switches between O'Carolanesque 18th Century rave style to sweet balladeering, along with true and loving versions of traditional Irish music tunes, all layered with a knowing hedge school poetic sensibility." Based in Bern, Canton of Bern, Switzerland Tim Bradford Photo of Kymotopia Kymotopia "I was thrilled when Kymotopia agreed to play at our wedding, and they somehow exceeded all expectations. Jean-Nöel and Joseph were incredibly accommodating from start to finish, happily taking on special requests, including learning specific pieces especially for us, and even helping out with a few extra things on the day. We asked them to perform some of these learned pieces at key moments during the ceremony and they absolutely nailed it. "A World of Waves" (their first album) is forever going to be a musical portal for me back to that special day. These two are fantastic musicians and wonderful to work with. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough!" Based in Basel, Canton of Basel-City, Switzerland 7th September 2026 Daniel Jacobs - Private Wedding Photo of Accordion Show / Oleksandra Show Accordion Show / Oleksandra Show "Oleksandra is a skilled accoridon player. She played some very nice selection of songs based on the mood of the party and the guests. Everyone loved the music and the lovely ambience she brought to the party. Besides the music, she is very nice, flexible, responsive and puts in a lot of effort into her performance. We highly recommend her for any kind of event." Based in Möhlin, Canton of Aargau, Switzerland 16th August 2026 Ash & Karina - Private Wedding Photo of Strello - Gipsy/Folk Trio Strello - Gipsy/Folk Trio "The trio provided the perfect musical accompaniment for our Christmas party and created a great atmosphere. The selection of pieces was varied and perfectly suited to the occasion. We were particularly impressed by the musicians’ professionalism and their harmonious ensemble playing. The music was never intrusive, but perfectly complemented the atmosphere whilst keeping everyone in good spirits. We also really appreciated the trio’s flexibility in accommodating our requests. Conclusion: A fantastic contribution to a successful celebration – we can wholeheartedly recommend the trio!" Translated from German Based in Zürich, Canton of Zurich, Switzerland 1st May 2026 F. Sieber - Company Christmas dinner Photo of Jennyandthekelts Jennyandthekelts "A devilish rhythm, a galloping melody and a captivating voice" Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region 15th July 2026 Denis Popper music mag - Pop celtic contemporary artist Photo of Owen's Friends Owen's Friends "Overall we had a very good experience in difficult conditions. The caller handled inexperienced participants, hot weather, and minor technical challenges to deliver an enjoyable experience for all, including child-friendly dances. I recommend this band."

Hiring folk bands suits a wide range of events including weddings, ceilidhs, barn dances, festivals, pub events, corporate functions and cultural celebrations. Folk music creates a warm, convivial atmosphere and many bands encourage audience participation through sing-alongs and dancing.
