2011 started with a bang for Monster Ceilidh Band with the release of their second album in the Sage Gateshed. Called Mechanical Monster it featured two CDs; one acoustic, the other featuring electronic beats programming and percussion. Critics described it as "simply stunning... a monstrous success" (Songlines), "truly thrilling...make sure your curtains don't catch on fire!" (R2), "A leap into the future... a success of monstrous proportions" (fRoots). Their music, ‘brilliant and exhilarating’, has its roots in tradition, but the combination of their talents has produced something innovative, contemporary, fresh and dynamic.
Monster Ceilidh Band have toured Russia and had appearances at Warwick Folk Festival, Rainforest World Music Festival (Malaysia), Eden, Sunrise Celebration, Hay-on-Wye Festival (How The Light Gets In), Towersey, Priddy Folk Festival, The Sage Gateshead, The Acoustic Festival of Great Britain, London King’s Place Festival and Grassington Festival.
