"Monster Ceilidh Band hurls tradition into the 21st century" Driftwood Magazine (USA)“I saw the Monsters playing a Shooglenifty/Peatbog Fearies style late night show [at Towersey] and loved it, about 8 hours later I'm calling for them at a ceilidh and they play beautiful, traditional yet funky Borders dance music to a delighted crowd. They're … monsterous!” Gordon Potts
