Reviews from local events in Scotland
“The Glasgow Ceilidh Band were fantastic! They arrived/set up etc exactly when they said they would. Their music playing was so good - very lively and enjoyable and sound level perfect and their rock versions of traditional tunes went down a storm. They explained the dances well to a mixed group of party goers. The only thing I regret is we didn't get enough time with them. I had arranged for a disco after the buffet (which they supplied as well)... next time I'll have them play all night. Organisation (via Fix the Music) was simple and queries were always responded to quickly. ”
“Great band - everyone really enjoyed themselves! Also they were really helpful with the calling since many people had never been to a ceilidh.”
“Circassian Ceilidh Band kindly came and played at our party this summer in South West Scotland. They were fantastic in every way. They are approachable, friendly and organised, and their music was outstanding. They really made our party, and we are very grateful to them and wish them all the best. We could not recommend them more.”
“Absolutely tremendous! Ceilidh Fire made our son's 18th birthday just amazing ...... fantastic sound… Foot stomping… Got everybody up on the floor from a huge crowd of 18-year-olds to a couple of 80 year olds, and everybody in between!! Our feet hardly touched the ground all night… An absolute privilege to have you talented musicians play for us…....... your sheer energy and passion for the music is exceptional… thanks guys!!!!”
“Dear Simon, Just a wee Thank You for providing the music at Ken's 60th birthday. The band was brilliant. We had great feedback and everyone really enjoyed themselves. You were great for beginners and experts alike - we had a couple of guests from Australia and NZ and it was great to show them some traditional hospitality. Thanks again, Laura.”
“Matthew from The Edinburgh Ceilidh Band drove from Edinburgh to Laurencekirk a Saturday evening and arranged a one-hour fantastic ceilidh for a bunch of Norwegians that had never danced it before. One hour might sound like a lot when you have never danced it before, but it was such a great fun and that hour went by so fast. Matthew used a lot of humour and the whole party really enjoyed taking part in it. Highly recommended!”
“Seafolk Ceilidh Band are excellent musicians and I guarantee will do everything in their power to ensure your night is a great success. Their unique blend of traditional music with a modern twist gets everybody on the dance floor - they even have the power to drag students away from a free bar! The band adapts their music to the venue & number & ability of the guests so by the end of the evening your party will be jumping and guests will be exhausted - I assure you that a Seafolk ceilidh will be remembered for months if not years!”
