The band comprises fiddle, keyboards, drums and percussion, bass guitar, electro-accoustic guitar and vocals, and lead guitar and harmonies.
The band is a collaboration of versatile and richly talented musicians with an enviable wealth of experience in the music business.
Best before Midnight use an eclectic mixture of traditional ceilidh tunes, ceilidh tunes with funky and catchy arrangements unique to Best Before Midnight, and ceilidh tunes such as “The Broken Chair” “The Cuckoos nest” and “Gillians Muckle Lochan” written and arranged by band members.
This mix of music ensures no two sets are alike; music for each dance being vibrant unexpected and different.
