Contemporary Celtic band, Out of Hand are two sets of siblings who discovered a shared passion in the music of their Celtic heritage. Toe-tapping tunes and lilting melodies, they blend both traditional music with original songs and sets. 

Having played together for many years and collecting over 1.3M views on TikTok, Out of Hand had their international debut at “Festival Interceltique de Lorient” 2024, following six years of performing at Australian festivals including National Celtic Festival, Port Fairy Folk Festival  and the National Folk Festival. They have currently collected the funds to record their first EP.

Performers Caleb (fiddle), Charlie (bodhran/vocals), Daniel (bass), Josh (guitar/vocals) and Sadie (fiddle/vocals/guitar), are all accomplished young musicians in their own right. Caleb was elected ‘Face of the Festival’ for the National Celtic Festival 2019 and awarded a scholarship with Feis Ros in Scotland. Sadie was runner-up ‘Youth Folk Artist of the Year’ by the Australian Folk Alliance in 2021. Daniel and Josh both perform alongside their brother Caleb, in the Melbourne Scottish Fiddlers Club and Charlie is studying musical theatre at a prestigious Melbourne-based institution. 

With 4/5 living in Melbourne and 1/5 in Sydney, exciting things are afoot for Out of Hand in the years to come.
