About montysmaggot
Monty's Maggot play traditional English dance music for English Ceilidhs, English Country Dances, and Barn Dances at major folk festivals such as Sidmouth, Shrewsbury and private events/weddings etc. We're a DANCE band, not a concert band --our musicians watch the dancers and play for them and to lift their feet; they don't dance to us.
Our cracking-good tunes are played with infectious rhythm, gusto and energy; and if we play a tune that isn't English then it's probably one that should be!
Apart from festivals, we mostly play around Devon, Oxfordshire, and the South and West of England.
