Playing a unique brand of raucous Celtic rock, The Craickers are different from your average insipid covers band; the songs are played with a passion and energy that is guaranteed to leave the crowd singing, dancing and begging for more!

From weddings and bar mitzvahs to private parties and corporate events, we are a professional wedding & events band, based in Manchester, and look forward to hearing from you!

With over a decades experience of working in the wedding industry, we're a talented group of musicians with a passion for performance.

​Primarily, we are a quartet featuring bass, drums, acoustic guitar and fiddle/lead guitar/mandolin.

However, we can perform as a semi-acoustic trio featuring cajon instead of drums.

This allows us the flexibility to meet the needs of your event, whatever they might be.

Our repertoire of music includes collections of popular songs from pop, rock, soul and indie (and of course, Irish!) and an extensive selection of covers and musical compositions perfect for any and every occasion. We’re flexible in the songs and styles we perform, and will work with you to suit your event.
