"For my 40th birthday, which was a family event and a good mix of primary aged children with adults. The musicians were excellent and the caller really made sure that the dancing accommodated the youngest without it loosing the fun and pace of the dancing. It was so good to get everyone up and dancing with even the young 2 and 4 year olds discovering their ceilidh dancing shoes. The atmosphere was relaxed, fun and the music was fantastic! We had so much fun and enjoyed the different styles ceilidh dances that they taught us. A perfect band for this family occasion who were very accommodating. We were so happy with the band and all the arrangements they made. The music was great and the caller allowed us to really make the most of the dancing as a group. Thank you for creating such an enjoyable atmosphere and memorable event. They were all professional, friendly and great at getting everyone up and I would highly recommend for birthday, wedding or any event!"
"The ceilidh band were absolutely amazing maximal flexibility for us to fit around our dynamic schedule with an friendly understanding attitude and highly quality playing, also the section of dances was really fun and appropriate for the group we had. We were getting everyone involved and fitting the maximum amount of dancers into our space. Five stars."
"This group was amazing - we had a last minute booking with them for my village hall wedding. Good communication leading up. They explained the dances perfectly, got the guests up and moving for hours and even took a spontaneous request from me for a slow waltz as a first dance. Sound even better than the videos - they made our event feel truly special. If you’re on the fence, then just go for it, you won’t regret it. Thank you!"
"An incredible band consisting of such lovely people. You guys were insane last night at my Mum's 50th and we have had so many wonderful comments about you. Could not recommend higher. A big 10 out of 10 from all of us."
