Profile Information
- Bio
- CEILÍ MOSS is an acoustic folk-rock band from Belgium founded in 1996. We describe ourselves as « acoustic folk-rock with guts and melodies, with a Northern European edge, not afraid of colouring a bit outside of the lines ». Perhaps it is Genevieve Williams from Widdershins who described us best : « They are not as punk as The Pogues, but they have a bit of that attitude and it gives them an edge many folk groups lack ». Other frequently heard comparisons are Ambrozijn, Tri Yann, Jaune Toujours, Les Ogres de Barback, the old Clannad …
Like many, we started with (and still enjoy playing) a “Spanish drunken Danny rover of the County Down in the jar” repertoire, we have nevertheless constantly broadened our musical spectrum: Celtic, Flanders, Scandinavia, klezmer, medieval music, French chanson, Eastern Europe, ska, Balkanbeat, kleinkunst, singer-songwriter, blues, we take whatever we like, put it in our cauldron and whoever says it’s not “orthodox” or “as it should be” gets a smack bottom… We play an approximately 2/3-1/3 mix of our own tunes sung in English, French or Dutch, and of mistreated traditionals.
Ceilí, I guess most of you know, is an Irish word for a party with traditional dance music. Moss was the nickname of Alain Mossiat, boss of the pub “L”Eblouissant”, in Namur, where we first learned to deal with stage fright, back in the early 90s.
Our fourth album “La vie sent quoi?” (“Life smells what?”) is now available on CD or as a download on CD Baby.

The fourth album by Belgian folk-rockers Ceilí Moss is finally available!
"La vie sent quoi?" contains 12 pieces of mood, party or thinking for the rainy days, the sunny days and the inbetween days...
As usual, the gentle Ceilí Moss with their wooden acoustic guitars will make most of the evil speed-punk-metal-indus bands sound like a bunch of retired accountants watching Derrick! Make your opinion and, who knows, spend a few bucks, on…

Laurent Leemans, singer and guitarist of the Belgian acoustic folk-rock band CEILÍ MOSS, is proud to present his first solo-all by myself-autistic effort: "Laurent Leemans & the Imaginary Friends Ensemble" offers 11 pieces of acoustic, minimalist and not (too) boring singer-songwritership.

Ceilí Moss artist of the month... Now, we have the proof that MR visitors have impeccable musical taste! ;p Now, seriously, we'd like to thank our voters, when you're not a professional band backed by a big infrastructure, it's that kind of recognition that helps staying up and not thinking we're preaching in the desert.
