For over three decades, this talented group of musicians has been delighting audiences at corporate events, weddings, themed parties, private functions, and public events across the state and beyond.

Entertainment That Brings People Together

The band specialises in:

Traditional Australian bush dances with full instruction and live calling
Interactive entertainment that gets guests involved
A repertoire of Irish, Celtic, and Australian folk music
Original songs performed with authenticity and heart
Customised performances to suit events of all sizes and styles

Whether it’s an elegant wedding, a lively corporate function, a community festival, or a St Patrick’s Day celebration, Paddy’s Wombat Bush Band delivers a warm, engaging, and thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Professional, Reliable & Fun
What sets the band apart is their commitment to making sure every guest has a great time. With their own professional sound setup and dedicated front-of-house PA technician, audiences hear every note and dance call clearly — a crucial part of any bush dance event.

They Go Where the Fun Is
Paddy’s Wombat Bush Band has performed in just about every setting imaginable:

On trucks in the outback powered by generators
In school halls, private backyards, and wedding venues
Under tents at the foot of the Grampians
Onboard ocean liners docked at Station Pier
At drought relief and bushfire fundraisers
Even on a world cruise with an all-German-speaking audience!

From Melbourne to the Mallee, the band brings the same energy, authenticity, and professionalism to every show.

Why Choose Bush Dancing?
Bush dancing is a uniquely Australian way to get people laughing, moving, and interacting. Dances like the Barn Dance or Circassian Circle ensure everyone gets involved — whether they’re up on the dance floor or clapping along from the sidelines. No dance experience is required, and the focus is always on fun over perfection.

Perfect for:

Corporate entertainment
Weddings
Themed events
Fundraisers & festivals
Private functions & public events

Paddy’s Wombat Bush Band offers an authentic and highly entertaining way to engage guests, celebrate Australian culture, and create lasting memories.

Sometimes we like the client to provide the following:-

We usually prefer a stage or performance area that's raised up a little as that allows us to teach and call dances more effectively.
If we're required to stay overnight, or perhpas if it's an event over a longer period than normal, then we might require a meal. Usually if there's food at the event, we'll simply join in.
We will definately require water to drink, and if there's other drinks available we'll simply pitch in with whatever is happening at the event.
Parking close to venue for the unload/load of our PA equipment is something our PA tech likes to see, but we're usually quite OK with most venues.

That's about it. Nothing is really a problem for us. Best thing is to have a chat about the requirements and we'll work it out.
