MoonDance Ceilidh Band
Uncle Bernard's Rusty Nuts
This track is the MoonDance Ceilidh Band at its most mischievous and theatrical -
a swaggering art-rock vignette that turns folklore into a gloriously unhinged sonic spectacle. Driven by Saskia
Tomkins' soaring fiddle, Brian Heywood's wiry guitars, and crooked rhythms that that dance between satire and sincerity.
Behind the humour sits a deeper thread - the way oddball folk music shapes us, inspires us, and occasionally terrifies
us. The tune leans into the tension and twisting nostalgia into something jagged, playful and defiantly original. It’s
noisy, characterful, and proudly rough around the edges - just like Uncle Bernard himself.
For fans of eccentric traditional dance music with scrappy rock energy, and instruments that wink at you and sometimes bite.
