Kafoozalum, a professional Scottish Country Dance Band, was formed by Peter Jenkins in 1978.
Our usual line-up is accordion, fiddle & piano; the band comes complete with a Caller to guide you through the dances.

Kafoozalum - the band

Kafoozalum - the tune

Kafoozalum's  Scottish Ceilidhs are suitable for weddings, civil partnerships, anniversaries, birthday parties and other familiy celebrations, corporate events and dinner/dances to be held in hotels, marquees, village halls, private houses and mansions.

Kafoozalum  is a regular at Ceilidh Club in London.
(our dates for Ceilidh Club are on the "See Us Live!" page)

Kafoozalum  occasionally provides Scottish/Celtic flavour background music for dinner parties, wine bars and theatre foyers.

Kafoozalum  is also well known to Scottish dance clubs and the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society.
Kafoozalum  is based in London, but plays all over the place:
  • Birmingham in the North
  • Brighton in the South
  • Norwich in the East
  • Exeter in the West
and everywhere in between!
We have our own amplification (each of our Portable Appliances  has been Electrical Safety Tested  and each carries one of those little green labels). This kit includes a radio microphone and can cope with venues large and small.

The band has Public Liability insurance {view certificate} at the level often required to work in town halls, community centres and many other public venues.
