About Panjandrum
Earworms are our speciality; eclectic melodies from all over Britain, Europe and Scandinavia as well as some self penned gems, all kicked into shape for e-ceilidh dances.
Panjandrum are:
Ian Dedic
melodeons / electric bass
Hilda Dedic
saxophones / concertina
Mary-Jo Searle
recorders / pipe & tabor / fiddle
Diane Moody
fiddles / electric bass / percussion
Gordon Potts
guitars / resident caller
We come equipped with our premier e-c caller as standard, but we also work with other callers if required.
We've played at many ceilidh series and dances at festivals, both in this incarnation and in previous years as part of The Committee Band
Everyone in the band has been a dancer and/or dance teacher so we really know how to fit a good tune to a good dance.
Basically, we are a bunch of multi-instrumentalist habitual tune hunters who can't hear a good tune without thinking about how to harmonise it and lift the tune off the printed page to breathe life into it.
Come to one of our gigs, you won't be able to keep your feet still even if you're not dancing!
